Is Curt Gooseneck Ball Tall Enough for Bed Rail Clearance Towing a Goose Box with a 2019 Ford F-350
Question:
I have a fifth wheel rv I converted to a gooseneck with a Reece goosebox pin box. My question Is using this goose neck ball kit, will it give me enough clearance so that the rv will clear the side of my 2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty?

Since the newer pickups have bed side rails that are a little higher than previous models years I wouldn't be able to say with 100% certainty that the Curt Ball # C60692 would provide enough clearance for your 2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty, but I do have some measurements that you can use to find out.
From the base of the Curt hitch ball to the top of the ball measures 5-1/8". If you back your F-350 up to your trailer with the Goose Box you should be able to take some measurements to see if it will sit high enough for 5" - 6" of bed side clearance.
If this isn't enough height then we also have the B&W Ball # BWGNXA2061 which measures 5-3/4" from the base to the top of the hitch ball.
I have attached some photos and review videos for you to reference.
