Curt Double Lock Flip and Store Gooseneck Hitch Installation - 2008 Ford F-350- Video
Speaker 1: Today on our 2008 Ford F-350, we'll be having a look at and installing the Curt Double Lock Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch with Installation Kit, part number C60720. Here's what our underbed gooseneck looks like installed. This underbed system doesn't take up any of our valuable bed space. All of the mechanism is stored and mounted underneath the bed of our truck. We'll still be able to lay our sheets of plywood in or whatever that we have completely flat against the bottom of our truck bed.Now, when you want to tow your trailer, just pull out the plug, your handle's released. You have a nice finger-grip here to pull the ball on out. more

Pro Series 25K Gooseneck Plate Installation - 2008 Ford F-350- Video
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. When you flip this around you just want to make sure your ball is not behind your rear axle. more

Gooseneck Hitch Installation - 2008 Ford F-250- Video
Today on our 2008, Ford, Fu50, we'll be installing the Curt Quick Goose 2 Gooseneck Hitch, part number C640-644. Let's go ahead and show you how to use the new Curt Quick Goose 2 Gooseneck Hitch. The red handle is our locking handle. Pointing straight down, the handle is in its locked position. We'll go ahead and turn it towards the front of the vehicle. Unlocking the handle allowing us to pull out, releasing the lock on the gooseneck ball. Then, by using the actuating handle, we'll go ahead and allow the gooseneck ball to come up through the gooseneck hitch. We can then go ahead and push the red handle back into place and re-lock it, locking a gooseneck ball up in a towing position. Then, once we're finished using the gooseneck ball, we'll simply unlock the handle, retract the lock and pull out on our actuating handle. As we get the actuating handle pulled out, we'll go ahead and push the hitch lock back into place and then lock the handle down, retracting the ball and locking it in a down position. Note, to begin our install, we've already gone ahead, and lower to remove the spare tire and both rear wheels. more
