4" Offset Ball for B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Trailer Hitches

See what our Experts say about this B and W Trailer Hitch Ball

• Does Using an Offset Gooseneck Ball Change where the Pin Weight is Carried in the Truck Bed
  If you were to use the 4 inch offset ball # BWGNXA4085 the pin weight on the ball will not be changed. What will change is where the weight is carried on the truck. Using the offset ball will put more weight 4 inches back from the center of the gooseneck ball hole in the truck bed. This may or may not affect the truck. Some things that could happen include reduced steering and braking and headlights angled upward. If the weight is far enough behind the rear axle it can lift the front...

• Comparing Reese Goose Box Pin Box to Andersen Ultimate for Ram 3500 Short Bed Turning Clearances
  The Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter # RP94720 for Lippert 1621, 1621HD, and 0719 pin boxes will not increase your turning clearances by itself beyond the Andersen Ultimate hitch you have. The distance from the center of the hitch ball coupler to the center of the first row of bolt holes is 17-3/4 inches. The biggest benefit is the air ride suspension along with one less moving part. The only way to increase this is to use an offset hitch ball like the...

• Compatibility of B&W Gooseneck Hitch and Offset Ball with Andersen Ultimate Hitch on 2018 F-150 5.5
  For your 2018 Ford F-150 with 5.5 foot bed, the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit # BW77FR is the correct fit. You will want to use the 4 inch offset ball # BWGNXA4085 because the bed is shorter than 6 feet. This offset ball will work with the Andersen Ultimate Hitch but you will still need to be careful with turning clearances due to the short bed and Super Crew Cab. The Andersen hitch will require the shorter 3237 coupler tube in place of the...

• Can a B and W Extend a Goose Goosneck Coupler be Used with a 4 inch Offset Gooseneck Ball
  I spoke with my contact at B and W and was told that the Extend a Goose # BWTEXA4200 and the 4 inch offset ball # BWGNXA4085 can be used together. However, the pivot point of the trailer will still only be 4 inches back from its original position meaning that you will get 4 inches of true offset, not 14.
