Location: kentucky		Going from a bumper pull to G.N. and want to know if there are any negatives to the BW "Turnover Ball". I was told it adds some "slop" to the pull. Any suggestions or recommendations? Thanks in advance!

Installed a B+W a la' DIY in 2001.  I've been pleased with the unit.  It's a KISS sort of hitch.

The only way around any "slop" is to have a ball welded or bolted tight to the frame of the truck.   But one can't casually remove the ball then.

This is the best you can buy.  Just rotate it every few months.
