INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

BALL LOCATION: F250 AND F350 SHORT AND LONG BED SUPER DUTY’S &

F450 with Factory Installed Bed = 46-1/8”

STEP 1 – MARKING AND CUTTING 4-INCH-HOLE IN TRUCK BED

Begin by measuring for the correct hole location in the truck bed oor. Measure

from the tail gate end of the truck bed oor by hooking a tape measure over the

end of the truck box and mark the oor at 46-1/8”. Next nd the center point

between the wheel wells, where these marks intersect with the rst measure-

ment will be the center point of your four inch hole. This location is critical to

the correct installation of the B&W Turnoverball™, so measure, mark and saw

carefully. Make a four-inch hole at this location. B&W recommends using a four

inch hole saw, however the hole can be cut by other means. If your truck has a

spray-in bed liner, you will need to take into account when you are measuring to

add the thickness of the applied liner that has been sprayed over the end of the

bed. If your truck has a Drop-in plastic bed liner, you may saw through both, but

it is more difcult to accurately locate the midpoint between the fender wheel

wells. Be sure that the bed liner does not move when sawing the hole. Once you

have the four-inch hole in the bed, use a de-burring tool or a die grinder and

carefully remove the burr from the under side of the bed around the hole.

STEP 2 – HEAT SHIELD REMOVAL

Remove the heat shield located above the rear axle under the truck bed.

STEP 4 – BED FLANGE MODIFICATION

Some models of trucks will allow the crossmembers to slide between the frame and

bed without modication. If this is not possible a small notch needs to be made in the

ange on the driver’s side of the truck. (see diagram)

Locate the front truck bed cross member in the wheel well. Measure from the back of

the cross member and make a mark at 1 ½”. This will be the center point for the notch

that is needed. Mark and cut a 7/8” wide by 3/8” tall notch.

STEP 5 – CROSS MEMBER INSTALLATION

The 1111 mounting kit is supplied with two angle crossmembers. The rear crossmember has three

notches and will be installed rst. Slide the rear crossmember between the frame and bed on the

driver’s side. If necessary use the notch cut into the bed ange in step 4. Make certain the leg of

the angle with the oval holes is facing toward the cab. After sliding the angle in about half way it

may need to be guided onto the other frame from the underside the truck. At this point the angle

should span between both frame rails and in front of the shock bracket on the passenger side. Next

using the notch over the shock bracket for clearance, roll the angle iron over the bracket while slid-

ing it toward the rear. It is important to hold the driver’s side of the crossmember upward

against the bed oor and forward against the bed crossmember. Continue to slide it back

until it is about four inches behind the four inch hole that has been drilled in the bed. Next install

the front angle in the same manor except for the leg of the angle with the oval holes should face the

rear of the truck during installation. Slide it rearward just behind the shock bracket and leave until

needed for installation. When installed correctly the two angle legs with the holes should be facing

each other. (see gure 5.1.)

STEP 7 – INSTALL SIDE PLATES

Install the side plates on the outside of the frame by passing a ¾” hex bolt and washer from the inside of the frame to the outside.

(The driver side washer is non-standard, see gure 7.1). Place a spacer ring over the ¾” bolt on the outside of the frame. Next,

carefully place a side plate over the ¾” bolt and secure in place with a lock washer and nut. Next, install ½” bolts in the front and

rear of the side plate starting with a ½” bolt on the inside of the frame and a at washer, lock washer, and nut on the outside of

the frame (see gure 7.2 and 7.3). Repeat side plate installation for both sides of the truck frame. If passenger side installation is

blocked, see notice below.

STEP 6 – INSTALL THE CENTER SECTION

Raise the center section into position between the cross members from

beneath the truck, with the latch pin release handle on the drivers side.

While holding down on the exhaust, position the center section over

the exhaust rst then over the brake line bracket. A lifting device, as

described on page 2 will help. (see gure 6.1) The round hitch receiver

that protrudes from the top of the center section must t through the

hole in the truck bed oor. Slide the angles against the center section

(an adjustable wrench can be used to stand the angles up if needed)

and bolt together using six ½” x 1 ½” bolts. Place the bolts with a at

washer through the slots in the cross member and through the holes

in the center section and add a ½” lock washer and nut. Next, bolt the

sideplates to the angle cross members using a ½” x 1 ½” bolt through

the sideplate, through the angle and add a ½” at washer, lock washer

and nut.

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.

STEP 3 – EXHAUST BRACKET REMOVAL

On trucks equipped with a diesel engine the tail pipe will need to be lowered. Un-attach the tail pipe bracket just behind the rear tire

on the passenger side. Installation on gasoline equipped trucks may be easier if exhaust is detached. The bracket will be reattached

later.

****SAFETY NOTICE*****

if a spare tire heat shield is present, we recommend that it be removed to avoid injury.

REMOVE SPARE TIRE BEFORE INSTALLING HITCH.

Notice: In trucks with gasoline engines un-attach the fuel vent line bracket on the inside of

the driver side frame, before installing side plates. Once installation is completed, replace

fuel vent line bracket.

**NOTICE** - On certain models of the Diesel Ford Super Duty a sensor control module is located over a hole needed to

install the passenger side plate of the B&W hitch. A bracket has been supplied to relocate the module so the side plate can be

installed. To begin, locate the module on the inside of the passenger frame rail (see gure 7.4). Once located, remove the two

bolts holding the module to the frame. Caution, do not remove heat shielding from wiring harness. Wiring must remain as close

to its original location as possible to protect it from the heat of the exhaust system. With the 3/4” bolt through the bracket, (see

gure 7.5) attach the module to the bracket with the two factory bolts (see gure 7.6). Insert 3/4” bolt through oval slot in the

frame and continue with sideplate installation. See gure 7.7 for relocated module in its nal position.
