The PIERCE Truck Bed Gooseneck Hay Bale Spear is a durable, efficient tool for ranchers and farmers who need to move hay bales without a tractor. Designed for easy mounting on a 2-5/16" gooseneck ball, this hydraulic bale mover offers a 2,500 lb. capacity, making it perfect for handling large hay bales with your pickup truck. It’s a reliable, cost-effective alternative to built-in bale beds.

Why Choose the PIERCE Truck Bed Gooseneck Hay Bale Spear?

This hydraulic bale spear is built with a sturdy metal frame and two robust tines, ensuring secure lifting and transport of large hay bales. The self-contained 12V hydraulic pump (power up/power down) provides smooth, dependable operation, while the 20-foot water-resistant remote with magnetic mounting allows easy control from your truck’s cab. Unlike a tractor, this spear lets you feed cattle from inside your truck, keeping you comfortable in cold or wet conditions. The gooseneck mount design allows quick removal, preserving your truck’s versatility for other tasks.

Key Features

  • High Capacity: Lifts large hay bales with a 3,000 PSI hydraulic cylinder and 2,500 lb. capacity.
  • Flexible Mounting: Easily mounts over a 2-5/16" gooseneck ball and can be removed when not in use.
  • User-Friendly Operation: Comes with a self-contained hydraulic pump that connects to your vehicle’s battery, plus electrical quick disconnects and a 200-amp breaker for safety.
  • Convenient Design: Removable spears allow you to switch tasks quickly, and the remote simplifies bale handling from inside the cab.
  • Durable Construction: Backed by a two-year warranty covering mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic components.

How It Saves Time

The PIERCE Truck Bed Gooseneck Hay Bale Spear streamlines hay bale transport and feeding. Its hydraulic system ensures fast, precise handling, whether you’re loading bales onto a trailer or distributing them in a field. The removable design makes it easy to switch between bale handling and other truck tasks, while the durable build minimizes maintenance. By eliminating the need for a tractor or expensive bale bed, it saves time and keeps you productive in tough weather. Enhance efficiency further with the optional PIERCE Wireless Controller to eliminate cab wiring. Furthermore, if you think you will need to pull a gooseneck trailer often, you can opt for the Bolt-in Hydraulic Bale Spear that allows you to simply remove the spears in order to hook up to your goosneck hitch.

Add the T-post Puller Attachment to make quick work of fence projects. The attachment mounts right onto your Gooseneck Hay Bale Mover utilizing the hydraulic cylinder to pull t-posts effortlessly out of the ground.

Perfect for Your Needs

Ideal for small farms or large ranches across the U.S., this truck bed bale spear is built for daily use. Measuring 64" x 62" x 30.5" and weighing 270 lbs., it’s a practical addition to any pickup truck. The gooseneck mount ensures easy installation and removal, making it a flexible solution compared to permanent bale beds.

Hydraulic Truck Bale Spikes Options:

Both truck bale spikes come with a self-contained hydraulic pump that will connect to your vehicle's battery. The question is how you would like to mount your setup. If you would like to be able to remove your bale spike system completely, the gooseneck is the best option. However, if you want to leave the system mounted and still use your gooseneck ball, the bolt-in option may be best. Both allow you to remove the spears when not in use.
