B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w Slider for Ford Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20K
my companion 5th wheel hitch(rvk3370) hitch was delivered on 3/11, I installed it in a couple hours on 3/12. It was a piece of cake, the delivery was made with a lift gate truck that I back my truck up to and had the driver lower the lift gate down onto my tailgate, I unpackaged the hitch and was able to Maneuver it by myself into the puck system on my truck, I have the slider hitch so much heavier than the standard one, but still very easy for my 65 year old body to handle, the B t W was the only hitch I considered because of the ruggedness and quality of their products my truck is a 2023 Ford F 350
Will at eTrailer.com did a great job walking me through the 5th wheel hitch and air lift options that I needed. The B&W Companion Slider Hitch installed like a charm, and looks to be great quality! Nice fit and finish, B&W.

Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Ford Super Duty Prep Package - 18K
Well built fifth wheel hitch. Haven't got a chance to tow our new Montana High Country 295RL. But I know a guy that has towed his fifth wheel with this same hitch. I'm sure this 18K hitch will be excellent! Or I wouldn't have bought it. I recommend e trailer for everything.
Item works exactly as described. I have a shortbed (6.5') Ford F350. Probably towed our 5th wheeler 5000+ miles with no problem. Then last year it happened! We were making a sharp turn in an uneven lot and POW, the 5vr hit the rear window and it exploded. After that I became gun shy about turning with the 5vr attached so I started looking at sliding hitches. A slider that you had to get out and unlatch to make work, didn't make sense to me. At what point do you get out? So, an auto slider hitch was purchased. Now when I get to a certain degree turn the auto-slide hitch moves back in its carriage and then auto-slides to the normal location once straightened out. Not gun shy anymore. Pro: Well packaged Well made Easy install It WORKS. Cons: Price Very heavy Some clunking after it straightens out from a turn

Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Ford Super Duty Prep Package - 21K
Very high quality product. Used on a extended cab short bed F250 and the sliding mechanism provides plenty of clearance between the Fifth Wheel front and the truck's cab. Fits Ford's factory fifth wheel bed mount holes perfectly. Used to tow a 42' fifth wheel regularly. Foot print is small enough to allow me to retain my tool box in the truck during towing. The hitch is heavy! Do not plan to try to install with one person with out an engine hoist or gantry crane. Two strong people can, but extreme caution should be taken as the hitch weighs nearly 300lbs and is awkward.
I have a F350 Super Duty Short bed. This slider works as expected. The ease of backing or tight turns makes this product excellent without the need to pulls pins for extension. I can remove or install in 7 minutes without a problem without any assistance. I am pulling a 44 foot trailer and have not experience any chucking or sway even in windy conditions. Tows very smoothly

Curt Q20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with Ford OEM Legs - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs
Short version: Product is fine. Etrailer shipping is laughable at best. First off, as far as the hitch goes, its a Curt product. Quality is great, it'll work just fine. At least the portion of the hitch that has arrived.... Dealing with Etrailer on the other hand has been a big disappointment. I specifically ordered this hitch from Etrailer because of the estimated delivery times. I needed the hitch prior to a weekend (for reference, the 20th) to move a trailer and the estimated delivery time was three days prior (the 17th) to that weekend. AFTER the order was placed, the estimated delivery became the 19th, a friday.... okay, so my two day buffer was gone but it was still projecting to be here in time. Friday rolls around and nothing delivers. On the following Monday (the 22nd), one of two packages arrives in awful condition. Absolutely destroyed box, patched together with sections of cardboard and staples, and wrapped in tape, styrofoam all broken up... fortunatley its a beefy hitch and did not have anything other than cosmetic damage. A 110lb hitch in a cardboard box. You think a company shipping a 100+lb hitch would take measures to protect their products a bit better. I called etrailer and they said they would look into the missing portion of the shipment with UPS and get back to me. Should be quick right? Wrong. I took the liberty of calling UPS directly to see if they could update me. Only 11 minutes on hold and they informed me they did not know where the package was and would start a claim. Okay... stuff happens. Figured I would call etrailer and take next steps. I call etrailer back and they said they cant do anything until they hear back from UPS... I talked to UPS in 11 minutes so I'm not sure what they're waiting on. I asked if they would send me a separate set of legs (the missing package) so I could get this trailer moved, and they refused to do so until UPS responds to them (I guess etrailer cant make phone calls, email only). I should have went with my gut and ordered elsewhere. Oh well. I know where to NOT take my business now. Package your products better and provide realistic estimated shipping times.
This hitch is much easier than my Pullrite, and a lot less weight. I'm a newbie with 5th wheels and I really love this hitch.

Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 24,000 lbs
I received two packages and one package was damaged BUT no damage to components inside. I put the hitch together and installed it in truck everything was in boxes and there was no damage or scratches on all components. I haven't towed my rig yet BUT I did couple & uncouple it, everything seems smooth and really quiet couldn't even hear when it latched so for very impressed can't wait to tow. I give it a 4 star rating only because I haven't towed yet will be back in touch.
Hitch has worked great so far. Install took about 10 minutes in the Ford puck system. Height adjustment took about 2 hours, I started with the hitch at the top position, then moved to bottom, then moved to 2nd from the top for final. You just won't know where you want it until you hook up, tow it a mile, come back on level ground and check where you are at. Don't forget to retorque the bolts once a year, have had zero problems with hitch after a year. One thing of note, if you uneven raise/lower sometimes the hitch latch will not lock/unlock. if this happens, make sure your coach is as level as you can get it at the front. (3,500 miles towed, F450, Pinnacle 18k, tandem tow Seaark 2,400 lbs)

Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with Ford OEM Legs - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs
Delivery was quick and assembly was easy enough. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because the jaws won't open consistently to unhitch without moving the truck back and forth. This is compounded when not on level ground. I had to pry the jaws apart to get them to open. My previous Curt hitch did not do this unless the truck and camper were very uneven.
Great experience. Called etrailer to ensure I had selected the proper 5th wheel hitch for my F-250 with OEM goose neck puck system. Hitch arrived earlier than expected in perfect condition. Installation was very simple (you will need a torque wrench at least 100 ft pounds). Coupling / uncoupling very smooth and positive color indicator very helpful.

Installation Instructions and Hardware provided -vs- exploded Views do not agree. 14mm Bolts and Nuts with Nylon Inserts we’re only provided NO Flat or Lock Washers were provided as shown in the exploded views.
easy to assemble and install. A bit confusing since it came lock nuts and not flat washer lock nut.

Demco UMS Double Pivot 5th Wheel Hitch - Single Jaw - Ford Super Duty Prep Package - 21K
Hitch is nice and makes me feel more comfortable being a more novice RV'er with the large steel bar that acts as a secondary safety, unlike one of the other big brands that just has teeth that close around the pin. Assembly took a couple hours of blood and sweat even though it really is very easy.... You have to make time to torque about 20 or so bolts, but that's pretty typical of anything you plan to drop up to 21k pounds on and jerk around all over the country. Install into/out of the truck bed is now a 5 minute project thanks to a block and tackle in the garage ceiling. Extremely easy to put in or remove as long as you have an overhead weight bearing device of some sort. Beyond my experience with dragging a 17k pound RV with it, the mfgr is VERY responsive if you call for help. I was missing 1 washer upon assembly and the sticker decal was damaged in shipping but the MFGR had new ones in my mailbox in 2 days at no charge. They are also VERY good on tech support. The only caution I have on this is make 100% sure you know what grade bolts you have and what you should torque them to. Novice mistake: I rated the bolts based on the chart in the instruction guide but I rated on head size, not the diameter and thus I over-torqued. Luckily I did not have the means to torque to the actual higher spec or I would have snapped them at 250ft-lbs. If you have any questions on correct torque, call the mfgr and as for tech support! As for usage experience: Carry a long stick with you. We end up on crooked camping sites frequently and the only issue is that while this hitch moves ALOT to accommodate, sometimes you may get up under the pin-box and you just can't get the hitch to snap shut. Having a long stick on-board will let you push on the spring-loaded part and cause it to snap closed. One last thing from experience: lube, lube, lube. Keep the thing lubed as per the manual and do not be stingy with it on the parts that slide and grab your king-pin. It helps out drastically in getting it to snap closed on the 1st try. As for lubing the top plate, everyone is using those plastic lube discs these days. They work fine BUT: They WILL cause you a bit of grief in getting the pin exactly where it needs to be to snap closed on occasion. The hitch has enough wiggle room to accomodate them but it is not 'designed' for it, so once you're 1/4" higher out of the hole than spec, sometimes you will have to play with it to get it shut. If you ever find yourself just TOTALLY unable to get it to close on the pin, put your jacks back down and pull out from under your trailer. I totally destroyed one of those plastic discs a week ago and spent 40 minutes fighting and cussing at the thing b/c it wouldn't close on my pin far enough to put the safety pin in the handle... I finally yanked the hitch out from under the trailer and I had caught the lube disc at an angle on the 1st try and it had ripped a gash in in. That extra misplaced material up under there was preventing me from being able to secure the pin. Aggravating: Yes. But I kinda like it. You will KNOW that there is an issue with your current hitching job with this thing. It can be unforgiving at times but when I have $80k of truck and $110k of RV depending on it, I'd rather it be unforgiving and tell me in a loud voice: "You screwed up your mount attempt, try again" than to get to the end of an entrance ramp and have the trailer come down on the truck bed. If I had to buy one again, I'd buy the same one.
The safety features of this hitch were exactly what my husband was looking for. We have a 2016 F 350 with the factory cutouts and this dropped right in and locked in with no problems. You do have to put this together which is fairly simple. The only complaint I had was throughout shipping, there were holes ripped all throughout the boxes. One of which was the one that had the nut's bolt's and washers in it and they weren't sealed in the bag that they came in so, we didn't have all of them. Many were lost but they were easily replaced at the local parts store. We haven't towed with it yet but everything should be typical with that.

Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Towing Prep Package - Slide Bar Jaw - 16,000 lbs
I received excellent professional service and experience Thank you for your time.
Poor, and disappointing. Hitch is not even close to tall enough for most any camper. Can’t even get a finger between the bed and camper. Description is not accurate. Be weary. etrailer is also charging me to return for a taller hitch. Looks like I’ll be purchasing somewhere else unless they can make it right somehow.
