We use a Andersen with a B & W Turnover ball. Works well. It weighs 79 lbs. so I can load it in the truck, where a conventional hitch weighs 200 or more lbs.
We saw a photo of a Andersen mounted on regular bed rails, and the fellow made an emergency stop while hauling a very large toy box---The Andersen was fine, but the force of the stop bent the rear rail upwards 1 1/2 inches or so. Pretty impressive hitch.
Now, before some of you folks start saying "that's malarkey," I was at the dealer last week inquireing about different hitches due to a problem we're having with our fifth wheel--and the sales guy pulled out his phone and we saw the photo. I don't work for or advertise for Andersen.
