What's up, everybody Adam here with etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at the B&W gooseneck ball. So this one, it's a two and five sixteenths inch ball. So it lines up with our coupler. You do wanna make sure that, it's gonna be the right size for your coupler, and it is gonna be a 30,000 pound capacity ball, which, our coupler on our trailer right now is 24,000 pounds. I always like to overcompensate, whenever it comes to the ball that I choose, just because we really don't want that to fail.
So definitely look at the specs of your gooseneck ball and hitch, so you can just kind of pair them up. So you're not really under limiting yourself, but as you can see, it's the right size. We're gonna get it nice and clipped in. And then once that's done, we just gotta hook some stuff up and we're basically ready to hit the road. When it comes to gooseneck hitch balls, there's a couple different things you can do.
You can just grab a basic ball. It's not gonna have a rise or anything. Or you can get another one that's gonna give us a little bit of a rise, which will just prevent your tailgate from hitting the bottom of whatever you're hauling. There's also gonna be one that's going to give you a little bit of an offset. So if you have a tool box or short bed, or maybe a fuel tank for all the farm equipment, we have one that's also gonna come back here.
Just know you do have options, but it all comes down to situation. But what we have right here is just gonna be a replacement from the one that we took out. As you can see, it's just getting worn down, there wasn't really anything wrong with it, but what you want to do to prevent excessive wear, you want to put some sort of grease in there. You can use a decent amount of different stuff. It's all about your preference.
So, if you need some, we do have some here at etrailer, but for right now, we don't have a tool box, we don't have a fuel tank, and we're not having any clearance issues. So, we just went with the same exact ball, just so we can just get the same exact set up that we had before. The B&W ball is what we had before so that's what we grabbed. And that's the rail kit that we have on this truck, but it is gonna work with other ones. Really, all you need to do is just match it up with your coupler. But what I did just to make sure it was the right one is I measured from the center of this hole to the bottom, this is about two inches. And of course, as you can see, this is the right one. So, if you wanna triple check, you can take that measurement and then use the information we give you on our website to grab the right one, but you don't really need a B&W rail kit for this to work. So, just know that it doesn't really matter when it comes to brands. As you can tell, it has a nice little color to it. So that's an anodized coating that goes on top of it, which just makes it extra strong. So it's not really gonna rust away. But if you don't grease this properly, it is gonna wear down more than it should. So just make sure you grab some grease for this, whether you're just replacing whatever you had before, or you're just getting started with your new trailer and you're starting to do the gooseneck thing. This is gonna be a great option for you. And that'll do it for our look at the BMW gooseneck ball. And I, am Adam with etrailer..

Its still doing great !
Top of the line quality with precision fit and no looseness or rattling. Versatility and strength ! I can tow my 40’ Toy hauler then flip my ball over to the recessed flush mount position and enjoy the benefits of a smooth open truck bed.
This company has great customer service they go above and beyond to help with finding parts and making sure the correct part is sent
Machined perfect for nice solid fit. After a year of non stop towing the coating is still perfect! No need to shop anywhere else! You got me....hooked lol

I still love my turn over hitch. It’s been 47 years since I I bought my first gooseneck trailer. This system is so much better than any ball system I have had that I wouldn’t ask for anything else.
good product
Quick and easy received right away thank you

Use it everyday with no problems exactly what I ordered thank you
The turn over ball and goose neck adapter were an excellent purchase and easy to install. The ride is smooth. I gained more space in the bed during hauling and removing the turn over ball vs 150 lb 5th wheel hitch is a snap.
I love the B&W gooseneck ball and hitch. There are so may different ways to setup from 5th wheel to gooseneck styles. I sold the truck that had the B&W hitch and regret not getting it in my new truck. If I could afford another new hitch it would be B&W for sure.
Purchased my used truck it came with a gooseneck hitch but without a hitch ball. I had window shopped etrailer before and knew this was the place to order from,quality products, just like OEM. Great customer service and timely shipping. Also ordered 2 replacement vent covers for my covered trailers.
Will shop again and highly recommend.
I have had several B&W hitches/balls over the years, and it's all I will buy now. Never had anything fail to do what it's supposed to. Well worth the money for me to do it right the first time!
Great product, just as advertised. Exact replacement ball for B&W turnover hitch. Needed this replacement as the ball was missing when I purchased my used truck. The fit is perfect. Ordered the product and had it at my door within a few days. Overall very pleased and will do business with them again.
This order has opened up my eyes to what kind of company I have been dealing with. Not only do they have a great selection and great prices but I made a mistake on my order and order a 2' hide a way ball when I actually needed a 2 5/16" ball. I noticed it was on back order but the 2 5/16" ball said it was in stock so I contacted customer service via email and it wasn't very long less than an hour I had a representative email me back trying to figure out my complaint. They never stopped emailing me until I was satisfied. This company had my business before but now i will pay more to buy from them if I have to just to deal with a reputatal company. I was extremely pleased and it was fault for the entire mixup. Thank you etrailer.
I like it works great change between the fifth wheel and gooseneck with just pulling the pin
It's been a year since I ordered this B&W ball replacement and it has performed exactly as expected with no issues. Would recommend to anyone in need of a replacement!
Best quality
Purchased this as a reserve in case I need to use a trailer that'll require a little more clearance. I have rails mounted on my bed, and this is just a "in case I need it" ball.
Goose neck hitch ball still working great after one year
