Model 1300r, Turnoverball, Gooseneck hitch installation instructions
WARNING
Most trucks have FUEL LINES and/or BRAKE LINES and/or ELECTRICAL WIRES located along the frame rails where B&W
Turnoverball™ hitches install. Carefully examine the location of fuel lines, brake lines and electrical wires BEFORE INSTALLATION.
Be certain you will not damage fuel lines, brake lines or electrical wires when positioning hitch components, drilling holes, tightening
fasteners, and lifting and lowering the truck bed. The fuel tank vent, located on top of the gas tank, can be easily damaged
during the installation of the hitch components. Care must be taken when positioning the front crossmember and center section
components.
Warning
On Short bed trucks, BEFORE INSTALLING THIS HITCH, check for adequate turning clearance between the front of all of your
trailers and the truck cab.
Warning
DO NOT invert the ball in the socket when carrying heavy loads on 2 wheel drive trucks. The ball may hit the top of the differential.
Remove the ball from the socket before loading. A plug for the socket is available from B&W.
