Weighs about 50 lbs. My 100 lb wife and I installed it it under the box in less than an hour. Hooking/unhooking is a breeze. I can actually see the ball in my rear view mirror so hookup can be a one man op. Retract the ball by pulling a lever and I have a clean open bed. Push the lever and the ball appears. Easy peasy.

What I was referring to is a pin box that goes on the 5th wheel in place of the usual box.

They aren't cheap but you don't have the problems I have read about using an adapter. But I have no experience only what I have read.
