Will B&W Gooseneck Install Kit # BWGNRK1062 Fit 2008 GMC/Chevy Pickup

Question:

Would a 1062 hitch work on a 2008 new body? I have the hitch out of an old truck and would like to put it in my new one, I know the frame holes will not line up but will it fit? Are the dimensions the same at the 1067? Thanks.

The B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Install Kit # BWGNRK1062 is a fit for GMC and Chevrolet 3500-series 8-foot bed pickups up to model years 2006 and 2007, but it does not fit a 2008 model year.

The other B&W hitch you referenced, part # BWGNRK1067, does fit some 2008 model year GMC and Chevrolet 2500- and 3500-series pickups as shown in the list I linked for you.

I do not recommend installing a hitch kit in a vehicle that it was not designed to fit. Hitch capacities are based on it being installed as per the manufacturer's instructions in the specific vehicles for which it was intended. Drilling new holes or making other modifications could affect the capacity and safety of the installation.
