Default flip ball goosenecks

is anyone using a flipball gooseneck? any problems with one? the removable ball kinda makes me wonder....

Also I found it for $530 installed said it only take 3 hours max.... sound like a reasonable deal? I've installed hitches before and don't feel like going through it again..lol Its only $350 for the hitch alone...thanks

you can get the b&w turnover ball for $318 at teewtys.com and they work great a pull a 53 ft take 3 car hauler and it works fine..they are rated at 30,000 lbs.. As for install its pretty easy if you want to put it in since you have done it before.

I've got the hideaway ball on mine, and my father-in-law has the removeable/flip one. I'm not sure on the brand of either one, but I'll check. Both work great, no problems. Very solid.

I have the b&w turnover ball on my truck and its by far, the best gooseneck system available.
