Quiet, Secure Ride
The 1" thick jaw on the Companion OEM is precision machined to provide a tight, sturdy connection. And unlike slide-bar models, the rounded 2-piece jaw on this fifth-wheel trailer hitch inhibits rattle and movement by securely wrapping around your trailer's king pin, resulting in easier hookup and a safer, quieter ride.
In addition to the sturdy jaw, the Companion has durable polyurethane bushings built in to provide a smoother, more comfortable towing experience. These bushings sit on top of the pivot arms that support the fifth-wheel head. Because the head is resting on a padded area, it is able to pivot without clanking. The ability of the head to pivot - both front to back and side to side - along with the trailer also helps to limit the chucking that may occur with a more static hitch.
Non-Binding Latch Handle
The dual jaw on the Companion OEM is operated by a simple-to-use cam-action handle. This handle allows you to quickly and easily release the jaws on the hitch, even if you are on uneven terrain. If any binding does occur between your truck and trailer, the jaws may remain closed after you move the handle to the open position. But because the handle is unlatched, there is nothing keeping the jaws closed except for the binding pressure. Therefore, simply driving your truck forward will be enough to force the jaws to open.
The cam-action handle is held in the closed position with the included pin and clip. For extra security, you can replace the pin with a sturdy padlock. The shackle on the lock you choose should have a diameter of 5/16", height of 3", and a width of 2-1/4".
Installation of the B&W Companion OEM
To install the Companion OEM, first set up the Companion's pivot arms. The arms are what allow the hitch to be adjusted front to back as well as up and down for optimal positioning. As a result, this hitch can accommodate the height of your trailer and also help to give you the cab clearance needed to execute turns while towing.
To adjust either the height of the hitch or the fore/aft positioning, just attach the hitch's pivot arms in the desired location on the base. The above diagram gives an indication of where to mount the arms so that you get the height and the cab clearance that you need.
Then, when the hitch head is fully assembled, simply place the hitch in the bed of your truck, lining the base up with the receiver sockets in the bed. Rotate all 4 handles on the hitch base out so that the built-in puck receivers are in the correct position to install in the sockets. Once the base is lined up, fold the handles in until they are in the locked position and secure them with the included pins.
The hitch head installs on top of the pivot arms. When you have the head in position, simply secure it to the arms with the included pins.

Installed like a charm in about 35 minutes. My only issue is the holes for the locking pins in the clamps that attach in the puck system are too small for a standard padlock. I am having troubles finding a padlock that fits.

Missing an entire bag of bolts that are essential for this to be functional. It is a big deal being that I paid for a working product and it is useless without them. Purchased this to install for our upcoming camping trip but as of now we will not be able to attend. Still waiting for the decision if customer service will or won’t send me my missing bolts. Basically it seems I purchased an $1,100 paperweight. Unacceptable service and product backing. Would not recommend. I would share pictures but it’s difficult to take pictures of something you didn’t receive.

This is a very smooth towing hitch. I had a Pullrite prior to this hitch and while it was a good hitch this takes towing to another level with the ease of unhitching and its evenness as you drive down the road.

World Largest Mobile Kitchen B&W Companion OEM 5th-Wheel Hitch for Ford Super Duty Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs - BWRVK3300 is the most innovative towing products I have seen in a long time. It fit into the Ford hitch system with no problems. It is a shame that Ford, Chevy, and Dodge cannot have a universal mounting like the receiver hitches so that they fit all trucks. It is designed to be either directly above axle or 4 inches ahead.
Comments
I bought this to go with my Enterprise Leasing Ford Truck. They are talking about sending me a Dodge. The regional manager for Enterprise truck inventory is planning on coming to your location to see about getting a Dodge Carrier. Still like the unit.!!!!!!!

Recieved my Companion fifth wheel hitch and it looks awesome. etrailer is a leader when it comes to their Products. Their sales personnel were extremely courteous and knowledgeable. Will be definitely buying from them again in the near future.
Comments
Now that this product has been through 15K miles and to 52 state parks, this means we hooked and unhooked over well over 100 times and this B&W hitch has worked flawlessly. Not to mention, it looks like a tank in the bed of my truck compared to others out there. Guess it is true when they say you get what you pay for!

I installed my B&W Companion into the 5th wheel truck bed package, knowing after viewing several YouTube videos, that it should work just fine, without a slider type. My 2017 Ford F350 Super Duty 6.7L Diesel crew cab short box (6'-9") with our 2018 #3120RL Montana 5th wheel trailer work great with the B&W Companion. I estimate our max turn backing angle at 85°(don't know why I'd ever cut that tight anyway). A 5er front nose will need a radius and be tapered to make this work so great in my opinion. The Companion mounts easily into the puck system and splits into upper and lower halves for easy lifting. See my attached pictures.
Comments
After a season of many trips, we are pleased with the B&W Companion hitch, since our 5er has a radius front end, we have plenty enough room to back into our camping sites. The hitch itself articulates in all four axis very well and is quite silent will running.

Package arrived well before expected and was packaged very well. No issues or damage once inspected. Direction for install was excellent and very easy to follow. Very heavy duty and packaged in a way that the weight was not all in one package. Made it much easier to manage. Very pleased with the product and highly recommend to others who are looking for a Quality fifth wheel hitch. I did go heavier than I needed for my F250 Super Duty but may later be moving it to a F350 Super Duty. Also still have the use of my Bed cover without removing upper Slide plate of the hitch.

Haven’t used hitch yet but seems to be made well. Packaging for delivery was horrible. Looked like ups rolled it from Missouri to California. One of the handles used to separate hitch head from the base was bent also. Was able to bend it back and wasn’t really a big deal I guess. etrailer shipped to my address for free and got it to me quicker than they estimated. Have used etrailer now for many items and I am always happy. Service and communication is top notch. Pics shows the bent side and non bent side.

Replaced a Reese 16k that had tens of thousands of miles towing an 11, 000 pound trailer. New truck has Ford's puck system, so upgrade we did. This 20k capability matches the truck's towing numbers and will be able to comfortably handle the next trailer as well Assembly and installation in 2 pieces was a breeze. Solid investment in safety!

Brand new and it looks like it was a used hitch. Several gouges and chips in the paint all over. Just pulled this out of the box. I would hope that etrailer does a better job of quality control than this. I’m very dissatisfied.

Package arrived earlier than expected. The installation is mostly straight forward. My only complaint is that I cannot complete the installation due to a parts shortage. I’m missing one 1/2 x 2” cap screw for the upright that supports the actual hitch head. Very disappointed. Can you send what I need to complete the installation ASAP?

This 5th wheel hitch works beautifully! Make sure you have the OEM puck system before ordering as I had to have a dealership install the puck system. The hitch puts together extremely easily and provides a very smooth ride. Looks clean and operates flawlessly. Love how this system can be removed at any time so I don’t lose my bed space. Works very well with an 8 ft bed. I would recommend this hitch to anyone!

Shipping was fast! Paid for the 3 day but it came a day sooner than scheduled. The hitch was easy to install on my 2017 F-350 with pre-installed fifth wheel pkg (8’ bed). I also tow a 36’ keystone carbon toyhauler and I use the middle setting for the hitch and it sits level. Hitch is quiet and makes the ride smooth!

We just recently ordered B&W Hitch for our 2017 F350 Dually Long Bed. The process was very smooth. We ordered the Hitch, and we received it within 2 days. It was well packaged and would recommend the hitch. We have not towed with it as of yet, but I can tell its already going to be better than my old Curt Q16 Hitch, Hands Down. Thanks for making this process smooth and Customer Service was great with answering all my questions. Only recommendations to make the install go smoother would be to include the Hex Head Bolt wrench to tighten the handle.

Super fast shipping, came in on time. Convenient 2 boxed packages. Heavy! I started installing around 5:30pm, was hooking up to 5th wheel and testing at 7:15pm... Couple of interruptions would have been quicker. My Rep, Chris W. was extremely helpful, pleasure working with her! Whole unit is quality IMHP... Being safety freak I added some extra lock washers & nuts to flange plate bolts... Bolt sticks out roughly 3/4 inch after torqueing to 80lbs. per instructions. Added washer and nut to complete very solid connection... I could not be more happy or impressed with whole operation... Feel much better about cost now that I have laid hands on it...

2020 Ford F-350 Super Duty
I recently purchased the B&W RVK3300 for my 2020 Ford F-350 Super Duty truck. I choose the B&W for its reputation, quality and solid steel construction. The two piece design (head easily detaches from base) makes it very manageable (about 75 lbs each) for one person to install or remove from the truck. The instructions provided were well laid out and easy to follow. My truck came with the factory puck system, which made Installation super simple and quick. Dropped the base into the four factory pucks, adjusted the four latches/cams and I was ready to rock and roll. All in all, extremely happy with my purchase.

- Curt A16 vs B&W Companion for 2020 F-250 Towing Trailer with Lippert Turning Point Pin BoxSince you have a Lippert Turning Point pin box on your Reflection 5th wheel you can safely use a stationary 5th wheel hitch. We recommend using a sliding 5th wheel hitch with a short bed truck when the trailer has a standard pin box because there is usually a clearance issue with the trailer making contact with the truck cab on tight turns.

It turns out that the only time safety chains are required is if there's a hitch ball used as the attachment point and not a king pin like with fifth wheel setups.
