Gooseneck Hitches

 What are Gooseneck Hitches?

Gooseneck trailer hitches are used for towing and hauling with Pick-up trucks in the same way as a 5th wheel hitch.  The difference is that a gooseneck hitch uses a ball and coupler instead of a kingpin and pin receiver.

Gooseneck Hitches are used to tow various loads, such as horse trailers and other types of trailers.  Gooseneck hitches usually have a maximum weight capacity of 25,000 or 30,000lbs.

Gooseneck hitches provide more stability because the weight of the tongue rests directly on the bed of the truck instead of being located over the rear axles.  This allows your truck to carry heavier loads and have a much better turning radius.  Hitches Direct carry several different styles of goosneck trailer hitches and parts.  For more information on Gooseneck trailer hitches, please Contact Us.
