With the B&W Turnoverball underbed gooseneck trailer hitch you get the best of both worlds. When you go to tow, the Turnoverball creates a sturdy, dependable connection with your gooseneck trailer. And when you're done towing, you can stow the ball upside down in the hitch to get full bed access and a clean appearance.
The durable steel hitch ball included with the Turnoverball system secures in the hitch with a sturdy, 5/8" thick steel pin that is incorporated into the end of the operating handle. To lock the ball in place, drop it into the hitch hole in the bed of your truck. Then rotate the handle in your driver's-side wheel well counterclockwise until the latch engages. When the latch is engaged, the spring-loaded pin on the end of the handle will be inserted all the way through the base of the hitch ball, forming a strong, solid connection and ensuring absolute security when you're towing.
When you're done towing, remove the hitch ball by simply pulling the handle out as far as it will go and then rotating it clockwise until it unlatches. Remove the ball, flip it upside down, and drop it back into the ball hole of the hitch. Then reengage the latch to secure the stowed ball in place.
Unlike typical gooseneck balls - which have round bases - the Turnoverball hitch ball is designed with a square base. This makes latching the ball in the hitch easier because the base won't rotate inside of the hitch like a round base might, so lining the pin up is a snap. The base of the ball also fits tightly within the ball hole during storage. Because only the corners of the base contact the sides of the socket, any dirt or grime that gets into the hitch will fall through the socket, thus helping to prevent any buildup that could cause the ball to seize up in the hitch.
B&W makes it easy to tow just about anything. With the many adapters and accessories available, the Turnoverball can be made to work with almost any gooseneck trailer. Hitch balls are available that have a built-in rise, an offset, and even a different connection type. Add on the Companion fifth-wheel hitch - which attaches directly to the Turnoverball with no other parts required - and you can tow your fifth-wheel trailer.

I was converting a fixed/welded gooseneck ball on a CM flatbed to a removable one so I could also use a B&W Companion Flatbed Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch adapter. Although it wasn’t easy to find someone to cutout the old ball and install the new turnover ball, it was done expertly and the hitch works perfectly! Very easy to operate from the wheel well and turn over for a flat area for cargo. Always had a turnover ball in the past and highly recommend this one for a conversion.
This unit was very handy to be able to purchase and install on my Bradford Built flatbed so that I could install my B&W companion hitch with flatbed base on the truck.
The welding was all fairly straight forward and didn't require much except for a few washers and a piece of flat steel for a spacer.
The one down side is that the hitch pin/handle does not have any built in twist-n-lock method to lock it so the pin remains disengaged for the ball or companion assembly install like on the common B&W under truck bed assemblies I've had on several trucks. We ended up installing the pin slightly out of line so that the tip of the pin would catch on the exterior of the receiver when pulled out and then when I wanted to engage the pin just push up on the handle and press the pin back in.
I do like that I can still cover the hitch hole with the cover plate as seen in the picture.
Great DIY kit for a flat bed.
I got a reduce price on a B&W weld in five wheel ball mount do to cosmetic scathing on tow ball which was almost non excestant save 65 dollars as usual B&W makes the most high qaulty parts and e trail are always excellent shipping was faster than they said. Thx again for passing on the savings to the customer
Came in a timely manner, about a week from the time I ordered it to it delivered to my door step in Alaska. The hitch itself is very high quality with nice clean welds and sharp clean edges which took almost no prep work to weld in to the frame I had built for it. You could tell by looking at this that B&W uses nice welding equipment and employs quality welders. Overall very happy with this. Installed on Monroe flatbed on F-450 cab and chassis truck.
I used this system BWGNRK1500 to retrofit the standard flat bed gooseneck hitch pocket on my Bradford bed. I wanted to be able to use my B&W companion hitch to pull my 5th wheel trailer so I needed a receiver tube that sits flush with the surface of the bed. This application took me about 3 hours to fabricate and install and it works perfectly. We have since installed the identical system on two other flat bed trucks.
Excellent product, shipped quickly and good price.
Worked perfect for this project of placing a gooseneck hitch on the rear of our semi. . And as always super fast shopping.
Works excellent I mounted it to a 3/8 plate
and it fits under the dump body
and it pulls the 30ft goose neck with 17,000 load no problem
Great service
Hitch works great. I would definitely buy another if I needed for another install. Got two installed in my truck now.
Exactly what you would expect from b&w . High quality and well-built. Looking forward to getting it welded into our truck.
This is a solid product for deck trucks. Easy to install, easy to use. It's very solid and strong.
I built this into a flat bed for a HDT and it works perfect.

B&W what a company, helped me with an unusual installation I am in Australia and wanted to fit my USA purchased hitch onto an older Hino Truck this truck had a 6.7L straight six turbocharged diesel, the same size power plant as the Ram 3500 we used to tour your great country B&W just gave me the part no I needed and said contact Etrailer, excellent product supplied by an excellent company I am currently working on my next shopping list for Etrailer
Exactly what was described, good quality materials and welds. Accidentally ordered the same hitch off of [online] the same time i ordered from here. The [online] box was beat to h@ll and looked previously opened. The box from here was in great condition (both shipped ups)
complete kit, everything needed to complete job, was able to fabricate hitch to a 2018 Dodge Ram cab and chassis model without factory installed crossmember
since B&W makes the hitch--I will rate only your service which was excellent , pricey but received very fast
Just what I was looking for. Now to get it welded into my flat bed well.

I still like the hitch and use it with my companion frequently but wish there was a twist and lock function like all the other B&W underbed hitches.
