The Gooseneck Hitch Plate from Buyers Products is an all-steel assembly that bolts to your truck frame and body. If you have a structural steel bed, you can also weld the hitch plate to the bed floor. Gooseneck hitches allow you to add extra towing capacity to your truck by transferring part of the load to the front axle. The hitch plate is rated up to 25,000 lb.
