Features & Benefits
Improved Clearance and Trailer Alignment
The Hi-Rise design adds 1 inch of additional height compared to a standard gooseneck ball. This small adjustment can make a big difference by:
- Preventing trailer-to-bed rail contact
- Improving trailer leveling for smoother towing
- Reducing stress on your hitch and trailer components
It’s an ideal solution for trucks equipped with bed liners or towing setups that require slight height correction.
Engineered for the Turnoverball System
This gooseneck ball is specifically designed for B&W Turnoverball hitch systems, ensuring:
- A precise, secure fit
- Easy installation and removal
- Seamless integration with your existing hitch
Unlike universal options, this ball is built to match the system perfectly for optimal performance.
Debris-Shedding Square Base Design
One of the standout features is the square base with a “corners-only” contact design. This allows:
- Dirt, mud, and debris to fall through the socket
- Reduced buildup inside the hitch
- Less chance of the ball sticking or seizing over time
This innovative design improves long-term usability and reduces maintenance, especially in rugged environments.
Heavy-Duty Performance for Real-World Towing

- 5,000 lbs. Vertical Load Capacity (VTW)
It’s well-suited for:
- Utility and flatbed trailers
