Hello, everybody Clayton here at etrailer.com. Here at etrailer, we install, test, and review a lot of different products to help you as a customer make a more educated decision before your purchase. Today, we're going to be working on a 2012 Ford F-150, we're going to be taking a look at. I'll be showing you how to install CURT's Double Lock Gooseneck Hitch. And something that I really like is this hitch is able to be used with fifth wheel hitch adapters. So if you do have a fifth wheel trailer that you pull from time to time, you can definitely use it with this hitch. more

Brian: How's it going Brian here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2010 Ford F250, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Curt under bed double lock gooseneck trailer hitch with installation kit. The hitch is going to be completely mounted underneath the bed and this is what it's going to look like once it's installed. What I really like about this hitch is the fact that we are going to have dual locking pins, which not only means double the safety, but also double the strength. And since the hitch is mounted underneath the bed, it's going to free up all that space up top so it's going to come in handy whether you're at the job site, hauling supplies around, maybe throwing a couple of motorcycles in the bed or even taking your family on vacation, we're not going to lose any of this precious space.One of the other things I noticed right away that's different from many of the other goosenecks available is the safety chain loops. They're going to be spring loaded so they're not going to bounce around, but they're also going to be very thick and very dependable. more

Your safety chains are spring loaded turned down snug against the bed of the truck so it can stay out of the way, but when you need them they simply pop up and they're ready to use. Additionally, the system can be used with B&W's companion, so you can put a fifth wheel insert in here on and now you're fit for a trailer as well.Okay, on our driver's side we'll have our release handle for our ball. We simply let it go inward to lock your ball into place, and when you need to take it out, flip it over, replace it with a different size, you simply pull it out, push it to the side, and that'll hold it in place so you can make your adjustments and lock it back down. more

Today in our 2008 Ford F-350, we'll be installing the Pro Series 25K Gooseneck Plate for Fifth Wheel Rails, part number 49080. Now a great feature about having this adapter verses an under-bed gooseneck mount, is if you have a lot of trailers that you have to tow that are either gooseneck or fifth wheel, you are able to do that easily just by pulling the pins, removing it, and switching out your adapter to a fifth wheel. Removing it is as simple as pulling our clip, pulling our pin out, doing that on all four corners, and lifting it out. Once we have it back in place, when we're hooking it onto a different trailer or hooking our gooseneck back up, reinsert the pin, reinstall the clip just like that. Now you may notice right here we have our loops that go through here where we can wrap our safety chains through and connect our safety chains from our trailer together. We have one here on the front and one at the back because this adapter, if we need to bring our trailer closer to the cab of our truck, you notice it's offset. We can just flip it 180 degrees and reinstall our clips. Now this Pro Series Gooseneck Adapter has a 25,000 pound max gross trailer weight rating and a 6,250 pound max gross tongue weight rating. Here's what our gooseneck adapter plate comes with. Obviously we have our gooseneck adapter plate here, which comes with a 2-5/16 inch ball.
