  • Recommended Trailer Locks for Bumper Pull Trailers and Gooseneck Trailer That Can Be Keyed Alike
  • I have a solution for you, but there is not a set of coupler locks for a gooseneck trailer and traditional coupler that can be keyed the same. However, there are some options that can be keyed alike within their application so if you needed more traditional coupler locks in the future those could be keyed like the first one. For the trailers you've got with traditional couplers I recommend using the Fastway Universal Trailer Coupler Lock for 1-7/8", 2" and 2-5/16" Couplers # FA86-0015-316,...

  • Underbed Installation Brackets for Gooseneck Hitch On 2010 Ram 2500
  • In order to find the underbred installation brackets compatible with the gooseneck hitch you have, we will need to know the manufacturer of the gooseneck. If the gooseneck you removed from another truck is the Curt Double Lock Gooseneck Hitch # C60607, you can use the Curt Custom installation kit # C60661 . Or, if you instead have the Curt EZr Double Lock Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # C60619 , you can use the Curt Custom Installation Kit # C60660. If your existing gooseneck is not a Curt...

  • Preventing Theft Of 5th Wheel Trailer Using Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-To-Goosenck Adapter
  • The traditional gooseneck coupler locks like the # BLTL-53-40D2 will not work on this adapter. We do have a few solutions though that will help with theft reduction though. First you can loosen the set screw that holds the inner coupler tube in, remove the coupler, and then store it in a locked vehicle or other location. If the coupler part isn't there no one will be able to come and steal your trailer when you're not around it. Another more traditional option would be using the Super...

  • Any Additional Parts Needed To Install Reese Gooseneck Hitch # RP58079 To A 2009 GMC 2500HD
  • The Reese Above-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch, part # RP58079, will attach to your base rails that are installed in your 2009 GMC Sierra 2500 Diesel short bed truck. You will not need to use any other additional parts. If you have the Reese base rails in your vehicle they will be rated for 25,000lbs and the Reese gooseneck hitch is rated for 25,000lbs, so your towing capacity will be limited to the capacity on your vehicle. Remember to stay under the rating of the lowest rated component...

  • Gooseneck Extension for 2005 Dodge Ram Truck with 6 ft Bed
  • You can measure from the center of your existing gooseneck ball to the back of the cab on the Dodge and then measure the width of the trailer loft and divide that by two. If the measurement from the center of the hitch ball to the cab is 4 inches greater than one half the width of the trailer you should have room for clearance. If not you will need to purchase an offset gooseneck ball that is long enough to provide the 4 inches clearance needed to accommodate pitch and roll of the trailer...

  • Adapter Needed for 5th Wheel Hitch to Fit Gooseneck Hitch on 2017 Ram 2500 with Short Bed
  • Although we do not have any options to convert a factory prep kit for your 2017 Ram 2500 so that it is compatible with a 5th wheel hitch using the ball bearing locking system, I do have another solution for you. I recommend installing the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1384 which gives you only the the gooseneck system that you are looking for. This system uses a lever at your wheel-well to lock the hitch ball into place. I have attached a sample installation...

  • Offset Recommendation for 2017 Ram 2500 Short Bed with Factory Gooseneck Trailer Hitch
  • We do have a possible solution for you but there isn't a hitch ball that offers an offset to the factory gooseneck hitch in your 2017 Ram 2500 short bed. Instead I recommend using the B&W Extend-A-Goose Coupler # BWTEXA4200 on your gooseneck trailer. It'll give you 10 inches of offset which is way more than you'll get from a hitch ball. It fits on standard 4 inch diameter gooseneck outer tubes.

  • 2006 GMC Sierra 1500 Short Bed Hitch Recommendation for Towing a Gooseneck Horse Trailer
  • In order to use the Curt Above-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # 16055 on your 2006 GMC Sierra 1500 short bed you'll also need to install the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # C16418-204. This is a great option if you plan on towing both 5th wheel and gooseneck trailers (or if you want to at least keep your options open). If you only plan on towing that gooseneck trailer though then I recommend going with the Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch # C60712 instead....

  • To add a gooseneck hitch to your 2006 Ram 2500 Laramie with the 6-1/2 Foot bed I recommend using the Curt EZr Double Lock Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch with Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs # C60682. This gooseneck hitch installs under the bed so you'll have a clear truck bed when the ball is removed and it installs without any required drilling, so it's an easy to add option. If you don't already have a 7 way plug in the truck bed for easy connection to your trailer, I recommend using...

  • Recommended Offset Ball for B&W Gooseneck Trailer Hitch
  • I do have a solution for you, however the Draw-Tite 5" Offset Ball # 19308 mentioned in your question is not compatible with B&W gooseneck hitches. There a few compatible offset balls for your B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch, depending on the specific model that you have. To ensure you get the correct one, you just want to take a measurement from the locking pin hole to the bottom of the square base on your hitch ball. I have included an image that shows where you want to take this measurement....

  • Parts Needed to Install Underbed Curt Gooseneck Hitch on 2019 Ford F-150
  • I'll start this off by saying that B&W is the only company that uses a square base on their gooseneck hitch balls; Curt does not offer this as it is proprietary for B&W hitches. When it comes to the difference between the Double Lock and the EZr, the Double Lock has a slightly higher Pin Weight capacity and the placement of the safety chain loops is different on the two hitches. I've added a photo to show the differences, but for the most part they're functionally the same hitch. The...
