B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch | 2015-2026 Ford F-150

Heavy-Duty Gooseneck Towing Infrastructure for Ford F-150 (SKU: BQVL_GNRK1121)

The B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch (MPN: GNRK1121 / SKU: BQVL_GNRK1121) engineered for 2015-2026 Ford F-150 trucks delivers an uncompromised 30,000 lbs Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) rating and 7,500 lbs Gross Tongue Weight (TW) capacity without sacrificing bed utility. Because this under-bed gooseneck hitch utilizes a precision-machined 2-5/16 inch solid steel ball and custom laser-cut side plates that bolt directly to existing frame holes, it eliminates frame drilling while maintaining full structural rigidity under extreme payload stress. As noted by veteran SAE J2638 testing engineers, custom under-bed frame integration preserves chassis torsional stiffness while transferring heavy tongue loads directly into the truck frame, preventing bed floor flex during high-tonnage hauling.

Engineered for extreme climate performance and heavy agricultural or overland trailering, the B&W GNRK1121 features a dual-stage, high-durability powder-coat finish tested against aggressive de-icing agents, magnesium chloride, and harsh road salt spray. The signature Turnoverball system allows truck owners to flip the 2-5/16 inch hitch ball upside down into the socket in seconds, restoring a completely flat, obstruction-free bed floor for gear, cargo boxes, or slide-in campers. The spring-loaded 5/8 inch solid steel locking pin extends completely through the ball base, locked securely via an ergonomic wheel-well latch handle designed for smooth operation even when wearing heavy winter work gloves. Ships direct across Canada and the USA with zero duties, no surprise brokerage fees, and full domestic warranty backing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the B&W Turnoverball GNRK1121 require drilling into my truck frame?

No. The B&W GNRK1121 hitch bolts directly to existing factory holes in your Ford F-150 frame rails. The only modification required is cutting a clean 4-inch hole in the truck bed floor for the receiver socket.

Can I install this gooseneck hitch on an F-150 with a spray-in bed liner?

Yes. The Turnoverball system is fully compatible with spray-in bed liners. You simply cut the 4-inch receiver hole directly through the bed floor and liner coating.

How does the ball invert for flat bed storage?

To invert the ball, pull the spring-loaded latch handle in the driver-side rear wheel well outward and turn it slightly to lock it open. Lift the 2-5/16 inch ball out, flip it upside down into the socket, and release the handle pin back into place.

Is this hitch compatible with 5th wheel trailers?

Yes. The GNRK1121 socket serves as the exact base for the drop-in B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitch, giving you dual-towing capability without extra bed rails.
