Imagine the bed of the truck is not there for a minute. With the RV hooked up what does the hitch do???? It would move forward when braking and backward when accelerating. and both directions when hitting a bridge. The FACT is the BED of the truck is supporting the weight that is applied to the Andersen hitch!
Dunno know about that. My Turnover Ball base is bolted solidly to the frame, which holds my Companion, and would hold an Andersen if I had one. The bed =stabilizes= the load.

With both the Andersen and Companion the hitch base is pulled down onto the bed floor. The Turnover Ball holds it down. The load is placed on the sheet metal and tophats on the bottom of the bed. Verses onto the frame in puck and rail systems.
Some on here is the pass have claimed that it can for held down by the Turnover Ball and held up at the same time!!!!!!! Chris
