ss502gmc Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 I just bought a gooseneck trailer and now i need the hitch to pick it up. I will also need the 5er hitch later on but not right now so i cant do the hide a goose. Im trying to find something thats not gonna break the bank considering the trailer place around here in Mass wants $350 just to install the Reese Universal rails plus $189 for the rails plus $210 for the goose plate!! So my question is does anyone know of any certain brand of hitch that will be dependable but not gonna cost too much $$$$ just for the name brand? And if so where can i get it. Im supposed to pick up the trailer on memorial day 800 miles away. Any advice would be great. Thanks
briddle3 Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 spend the extra cash and get quality... get a B&W turnoverball. Here in missouri it will run you $490 plus tax. The hitch itself should be the same $399 due to manufacturer set pricing but instalation may vary. They are definitly the best hitch out there with the highest weight capacity. brody
96chevy7.4L Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 I agree get the B&w Turnover ball and then get the 5th wheel adapter they make for it. You simply pull the ball out and put the 5th wheels in its place. Simple switch.
HySpdChiKnFeeD Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 I agree with everyone else... B&W turnover ball. Best investment you'll ever make, and you can buy a 5th wheel adapter (a bit pricy) but you maintain full use of a flat bed.
