The hitch ball comes as a kit with the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1500 so there isn't a way to separate the two (it comes directly to use like this). You can either keep it for just in case or you can choose to sell it to help offset some of the cost of the gooseneck hitch.
