B&W 1988-1998 Chevrolet, 1988-1998 Chevrolet Long Bed, 1988-1998 GMC 1500 Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch

Tow heavy without giving up your truck bed. The B&W Turnoverball is America’s best-selling gooseneck hitch, built on one brilliant idea: a machined 2-5/16" ball that flips over and stows completely flush in the bed floor when you’re done. No ball to store in the garage, nothing sticking up to catch a load — just a flat, fully usable bed the moment you unhitch.

This isn’t a universal weld-in. Every Turnoverball is engineered for a specific truck—1988-1998 Chevrolet, 1988-1998 Chevrolet Long Bed, 1988-1998 GMC 1500—so it bolts to existing factory frame holes and needs only a single 4" hole in the bed. No cutting the frame, no guesswork.

A Hitch When You Need It, a Level Bed When You Don’t

A spring-loaded latch pin runs completely through the ball. Pull and turn the handle in the driver’s-side wheel well, lift the ball out, flip it upside down, and drop it back in the socket—the bed goes flat in seconds.

Built to Convert to a Fifth Wheel

The square receiver keeps accessories aligned with the truck, so the same underbed system accepts a B&W Companion fifth-wheel hitch or a gooseneck extender down the road—no new rails, no second install.
