ABSTRACT:
A retractable ball or kingpin hitch is provided for the load bed of a vehicle. The retractable ball or kingpin hitch is provided with a movable pin mounted in a wall of the hitch for locking the ball or kingpin in an upright operational position. The locking feature assures that the retractable ball or kingpin will not be able to partially retract thereby compromising the effectiveness of the hitch and coupling when hauling a trailer.
