Product Information:
The products 205ST30K-T and 205ST45K-T are gooseneck hitches for a Cab & Chassis. Cab & Chassis have 34-inch-wide frames at the rear axle, the same as a semi-truck. They mount over the outside of the frame and set 2-1/2 inches above the frame, 10 inches wide on top and 4 inches down the outside of the truck frame to clear exhaust and other items that are close to the top between the frame at the rear axle. They mount with three ¾ inch grade 5 bolts on each side with the bolts and nuts included.
The 2-5/16-inch standard gooseneck ball is released by turning a handle 90 degrees, and the ball can be turned over for storage or removed for a different size ball or accessory.
Other gooseneck ball options are available such as a 3-inch gooseneck ball (part number FL1005-3), 2-5/16 inch heat treated stainless steel ball with a 45,000 GVW rating, and other special height balls or an inverted 5th wheel kingpin and can be found under Flip-Over Accessories. The gooseneck ball is round and rotates in its socket which keeps the socket clean and can save ball life if you have a coupler that is of poor quality or is rough which a lot of them are. The ball is locked in the one-piece machined steel socket with a stainless-steel spring and locking pin. Simply rotate the handle to retract the pin, pull the ball out and store it inverted out of the way in the socket or remove it for another accessory.
The Gooseneck hitch body frame is the same for both models: fabricated from ½ inch high grade steel, not A36 structural steel. The hitch frame has two openings to each side behind the gooseneck ball to connect safety chain hooks to. This frame is rated to 45,000 GVW.
The 205ST30K-T unit comes with a standard gooseneck ball 30,000 GVW, which is suitable for any standard gooseneck trailer.
The 205ST45K comes with a 2-5/16-inch heat-treated stainless-steel gooseneck ball and a 45,000 GVW rating.
