The Flip-Over Ball gooseneck hitch converts to a smooth bed in seconds. Just rotate the handle and Flip the ball over. In seconds you can have a level bed for all those jobs when an ordinary hitch ball is always in the way. It's easy with a Flip-Over Ball hitch. How it Works The Flip-Over Ball is locked in the one-piece ball socket with a spring loaded stainless steel pin. To invert the ball, just reach into the driver side rear wheel well and rotate the actuating rod 90 degrees. This cams the retaining pin to the open position. Invert the ball, and rotate the actuating rod back to its original locked position. That's all there is to it.

Since the ball base is round, it stays easy to pull out of it's socket by hand when disconnected to switch ends and have your truck bed floor to use again. I'm seeing a lot of folks switching from 5th wheel couplers to gooseneck ball couplers because of the ease of use and being able to use the truck bed without wrestling the 5th wheel coupler out of the bed. Tough Enough

And you get this comforting strength with only a 3-1/2" hole in the truck bed floor.. And, Flip-Over hitches are built specifically for each truck model – so they are a perfect fit.

It is not necessary to loosen the bed box for installation, and no welding or fabrication is required. They work fine with bed liners - drop-in or spray-in, and require on a 3-1/2" hole in the bed box floor. Everything is provided with the Flip-Over Ball hitch system, including all installation hardware and useful installation instructions. Some hitch models require frame drilling.

In
the seventies, I wrote articles about needing the
gooseneck ball 5 inches in front of the rear axle
for proper steering weight so your truck didn't
wander. Now with crew cabs and extended cabs, the
truck frames are longer and 2 inches in front of the
rear axle works. This helps with short beds. Popup
places the ball 2 inches in front of the rear axles.
The other guys are 5. Popup Flip-Over Ball also has
a round shank, so it can rotate without a trailer
and stay freed up. The other guys have a square
shank and can stick or freeze up if not lubricated
regularly.
The
Flip-Over Ball is not only easy - it's hassle-free. The ball
socket is machined from a solid piece of high-grade steel to
insure strength and years of service. The retaining pin is
machined from stainless steel so it will not rust and seize.
The pin is held securely in the locked position by a strong
stainless steel spring. When the actuating rod is rotated 90
degrees a cam retracts the retaining pin to its open
position so the ball can be inverted. When the actuating rod
is returned to its locked position - the retaining pin
securely locks the ball in its socket. extending ball and
coupler life.
