Recommended Gooseneck Hitch for Flatbed 2005 Chevy 5500 Kodiak
Question:
Hello, I have a 2005 Chevy 5500 Kodiak, 2 Wheel Dr. with a 12 foot wooden flatbed on it. I am looking for a 30,000 pound gooseneck hitch for my truck. I can’t seem to find anything specific for my truck. What would you recommend?

Expert Reply:
To add a gooseneck hitch with a 30,000 lbs capacity to your 2005 Chevy 5500 you are going to want the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for Flatbed Trucks item # BWGNRK1500. There are no custom fit options for your truck so this will need some fabrication. You will need to weld a plate beneath the hitch and cut a hole in your wooden flatbed but this will give you the capacity you are looking for.
I have added a link to the installation instructions for you to take a look at so you can see exactly how the hitch installs. I have also added a link to a video review of this hitch for you to check out.
