What is the difference between the Gooseneck Bale Spear (ABS1K) and the Bolt-in Bale Spear (ABS2K)?
The ABS1K hay spear installs directly over a gooseneck ball; in comparison, the ABS2K bolts into the truck bed so you can haul trailers while the spear is mounted. Both units come equipped with removable bale spears.
