Troubleshooting Hard to Remove B and W Companion from Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch
Question:
Im trying to remove my BandW companion hitch from my 2018 f250. I pulled the center pin release latch, then loosened the 3/4 bolt. Tried to lift it but it wont budge. Any help is appreciated. Thanks,

The easiest way to get a stuck gooseneck ball or Companion hitch in a Turnoverball rail kit is to connect the hitch to a trailer and pull the release latch and use the trailer jacks to lift the hitch out of the rail kit. It can also help to spray down into the shaft with WD-40 to help loosen any corrosion or dirt.
