B&W Hitches 4000 Series OEM Replacement King Pin B&W Hitches GNXA4000 Gooseneck Coupler King Pin -- Direct Replacement for 4000 Series Couplers

When the king pin on your B&W Gooseneck Coupler wears out or gets damaged, you do not have to replace the entire coupler assembly. The GNXA4000 is the factory-spec replacement king pin for B&W's 4000 series gooseneck coupler, machined to the same tolerances as the original. Keep your towing system performing at full capacity with a genuine B&W replacement part instead of a universal substitute that may not fit or meet the original load ratings.

Stop a Worn King Pin Before It Becomes a Towing Hazard

The king pin is the single pivoting connection point between your gooseneck ball and the coupler jaw. Over time, road vibration, heavy loads, and exposure to the elements can wear the pin surface, introduce slop into the connection, or cause visible scoring. A worn or damaged king pin is not a cosmetic issue -- it directly affects trailer tracking, brake response, and overall tow vehicle control.

The B&W GNXA4000 restores that connection to factory specification. At 19.8 lbs and sized at 12.25 x 12.25 x 9.5 inches, this is a substantial, precision-machined component built to the same standards as the original pin that shipped with your 4000 series coupler. If you already own a B&W 4000 series gooseneck coupler, this is the correct replacement king pin -- no adapters, no guesswork.

OEM-Spec Replacement

Machined to the same dimensions and tolerances as the original B&W 4000 series king pin. Drop-in fit with no modifications required.

Precision-Machined Steel

Heavy-duty steel construction at 19.8 lbs provides the strength and wear resistance expected of a genuine B&W component.

Restores Full Coupler Function

Eliminates slop, rattle, and wear-induced play in the coupler jaw connection -- restoring tight, secure gooseneck engagement.

Genuine B&W Part

Sourced directly from B&W Hitches -- the same manufacturer that built your original coupler. Not a generic substitute.

What Is the B&W 4000 Series Gooseneck Coupler?

B&W's 4000 series gooseneck coupler (commonly sold under the Turnoverball and companion coupler systems) is one of the most widely used gooseneck towing platforms in the North American RV and trailer market. The system is designed to work with B&W's underbed gooseneck ball and provides a positive-locking jaw mechanism that engages around the king pin. The GNXA4000 is the service replacement for the king pin component of that jaw assembly.

If you are unsure whether your coupler is a 4000 series unit, look for the B&W logo and model designation stamped or labeled on the coupler housing. B&W also offers higher-capacity coupler series (such as the 20K and 25K platforms), so confirming your coupler model before ordering is important.

Direct Service Replacement: The GNXA4000 is designed as a field-replaceable wear component. Rather than retiring a complete coupler assembly due to a worn pin, owners can replace just the king pin and return the coupler to service -- saving significant cost and downtime.

Common Reasons to Replace a Gooseneck King Pin

  • Visible scoring, pitting, or grooving on the pin surface from metal-on-metal wear
  • Noticeable rattle or side-to-side play in the coupler when the jaw is locked
  • Difficulty engaging or releasing the coupler jaw due to pin deformation
  • Rust or corrosion buildup that cannot be cleaned to a serviceable surface
  • Impact damage from a hard hitch engagement or road debris
  • Routine preventive replacement during annual coupler service intervals
Installation Note: Replacing the king pin on a B&W 4000 series coupler is a mechanical task that typically requires basic hand tools. The jaw assembly must be disassembled to remove the old pin and seat the new one. Always torque fasteners to B&W's specified values when reassembling the coupler jaw mechanism.

Maintenance Tips for Gooseneck Coupler King Pins

Keep Your King Pin in Service Longer:
  • Grease the king pin contact surface at every coupler service interval -- typically every 3,000 to 5,000 towing miles or at least annually.
  • Use a high-quality lithium-based or moly grease rated for heavy towing applications.
  • Inspect the pin surface visually before each tow season and after any hard or unexpected impact.
  • Keep the coupler jaw clean and free of packed debris that can accelerate pin wear.
  • Store the coupler with the jaw closed over the pin to protect the pin surface from weather exposure when not in use.

Compatibility and Fitment

The GNXA4000 king pin is designed specifically for the B&W Gooseneck Coupler 4000 series platform. It is not a universal king pin and is not interchangeable with fifth-wheel king pins, conventional trailer coupler pins, or B&W coupler assemblies outside the 4000 series designation.

Related B&W Products: If you are servicing your complete gooseneck coupler system, consider also inspecting the coupler jaw, locking mechanism, and mounting hardware. B&W offers a full range of service parts for the 4000 series platform to support complete coupler rebuilds.

Important Information -- Read Before Ordering and Installing
  • The GNXA4000 is engineered specifically for the B&W Gooseneck Coupler 4000 series. Confirm your coupler model number before ordering. Using an incorrect king pin in a coupler can result in connection failure while towing.
  • Do not use this king pin as a substitute for fifth-wheel king pins or any other coupler type outside the B&W 4000 series designation.
  • Always perform a complete coupler function test -- jaw engagement, lock engagement, and safety latch -- after installing a replacement king pin before attempting to tow.
  • Never tow with a coupler that shows visible play, rattling, or incomplete jaw lock engagement after king pin replacement. Inspect all related components including the jaw and locking mechanism.
  • Grease the king pin contact surface before first use and at every subsequent service interval.
  • If you are uncertain about coupler compatibility or installation, have the work performed by a qualified hitch installation professional.
