Quiet, Secure Ride
The 3/4" thick jaw on the Patriot 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 Patriot 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 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 Patriot 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".
Easily Adjustable Design
The B&W Patriot can 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 Patriot 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.

Product is very well made. Glad I went with B and W Patriot Hitch. Once the bed rails were installed the rest was a breeze. Now it's time to get a 5th wheel and hit the open road. etrailer, my go-to website.
by: Terry05/02/2024
Great product and you have to appreciate made in America with American steel! It arrived in good shape in only three days. I ordered on Sunday and shipped the same night. etrailer is great company to do business with!

I bought this hitch to replace a slider hitch from another manufacturer. I wanted something I could get out of the bed without help, and with the 2" offset, I can get plenty of angle in a tight turn, thus eliminating the need for a slider.
So far this hitch is fantastic. Hook up is so easy. Handle moves with zero effort. Same for unhooking. As soon as it was installed, I did a test run, and it was rock solid. I tried to make it chuck when starting and stopping. It wouldn't do it. Zero slop. On that note, the tolerances are tight on this thing from the bolt holes to the legs that insert it into the rails. My rails we're not perfectly lined up and required a little dremel and foot stomping to get it in the rails.
In summary, if your looking for solid, conventional, non-slider FW hitch, this one is a great choice.

The hitch has been flawless. I have nothing bad to say about it. Does what it should without any issue.
by: Ron N08/24/2020
Hitch came quickly and installation was easy. Only hiccup was I have a curt rail adaptor for a turnover ball and one of the braces rubbed a support for the rail but was easily corrected. Hook up to and disconnects from my fifth wheel camper with ease. I have not towed with the hitch as of yet.
by: David Plagemann05/26/2018
Wow what a big difference my new 16k Patriot hitch has made. Easier to hook up and unhook my 5th wheel. Definitely makes a smoother ride, no up and down, up and down. My only regret is I should have bought it sooner. Thanks for a superior product!
by: Roy07/15/2020
Beautiful craftsmanship.
Arrived without a scratch.
All bolt holes lined up perfect.
Replacing a noisy slide bar hitch. This one looks like it will be very quiet.
Love that it's made in America with American steel.
by: Ian 09/21/2023
This hitch has been great and after a year of usage there have been no issues. It hooks up and realeases smoothly. While towing there is no noise transfered from the trailer due to the hitch being isolated by bushings. The top section is removable making it easier to install and uninstall.
by: Dennis 09/13/2023
Extremely satisfied with B&W Patriot hitch. Easy to hitch and release. Like it better than Reese I had. E trailer made it easy to order and was shipped promptly to my home. Will do business with them again.

Haven't got it assembled and installed yet but I was very impressed with the fast shipping and packaging.
by: John 11/16/2022
I purchased this hitch one year ago and it is very high quality. I tow a light 21 foot 5th wheel with my RAM 1500 Eco Diesel. I was able to adjust the hitch so that the trailer moved back several inches from the cab that provided better maneuverability compared to my other hitch. I was also able to adjust so that the trailer was perfectly level with the truck. The hitch provides a much tighter connection with the king pin which substantially reduces movement and noise. It was easy to assemble and etrailer did a great job with the entire purchase/shipping experience. Would highly recommend.
by: Michael03/18/2020
Product was easy to order and arrived in less then a week. Took a short time to assemble and install on my PullRite rails.
by: Jacob 12/18/2021
Installed myself on a 97 F-350 DRW. Having never done this before, I was a bit uncertain, but it was really quite simple. Honestly the hardest part was reaching all the bolts with my torque wrench (purchased some long extensions and a creeper). Don't forget the odd drill bit size if you are going to DIY.
Don't forget to order the "lube plate".
Maiden Voyage:
Towed 14k 5th wheel from CA to Arkansas and back. No issues with the hitch whatsoever.
Hooking up is pretty straight forward. It takes some practice to get the level of the kingpin on the trailer just right. Unhooking seems to require getting the height of the trailer just right, taking most of the weight off of the hitch.
I'm still a bit confused on the release lever. When unhooking, I remove pin and pull lever. It seems like it wants to snap back into closed position, but if the weight is off the hitch, when driving away it seems to just let go.
As a noob, I made one fatal mistake. I didn't put the tailgate up after my first post-install test. I only wanted to pull the trailer forward and back it up, turning the wheel slightly to move trailer over a couple feet. The tailgate made contact with the trailer and punched a hole in the underside. Paybattention to the tailgate!

I believe that the trailer may be on uneven terrain or there remains too much pressure from the trailer that is keeping the jaws closed. Readjusting the landing gear can relieve the pressure enough to allow the jaws to open. Use the safety pin to lock the handle in the open position and when you are sure that the landing gear will support the trailer, move the truck forward to release the jaws from the kingpin. The jaws will always open when the pressure of the trailer is taken off the coupler as the truck pulls away.

I bought the B&W 16K Patriot hitch knowing it was a bolt together hitch. Having said that the process was complicated by nut retainers supplied by B&W were not strong enough to do their designed job. I spoke with B&W about this and they offerd to replace them but the design was the same.
The hitch itself, once assembled, is fantastic. It is solid and quiet and the adjustability of the head position makes it very versatile as well.
I would recommend the B&W Patriot, but think it would be better if you can, to spend the other $200 and get the welded base 18K model.

After having this hitch for a year and towing my 34ft 5th wheel for thousands of miles, I would 100 recommend this hitch for anyone considering it. It is solid, quiet, and made and backed by American workers.
by: James R.02/02/2017
A great, well made American product. Easily assembled if you choose to install it yourself as I did. I am a big fan of the cam lock and handle assembly for the jaws. There is no movement or noise when pulling our 5th wheel. I would recommend this hitch to anyone needing such a product and would recommend you buy it from etrailer.

It is working great, No problems what so ever..
by: Rick F04/03/2020
great product. easy to install with the help of my son-in-law. When I had an issue with the clamped I could not unhook my 5th wheel I called the company and they helped me thru it immediately. Was able to talk with a real person and turns out it was my fault not the products. I would highly recommend this to anyone. I am also able to remove it from my flatbed during the off season which is wonderful. It is not too heavy with the help of one other person.

19,000 miles on it and it still works great. No problems with it
by: Alric04/05/2018
Received the hitch in two separate shipments in a timely manner. It was easy to assemble and install on my truck. I can not believe how quite the hitch is when I made my test run it was like the trailer was not behind me. Well Done etrailer and B&W

Outstanding, it is a great hitch and guilt when maneuvering.
by: Jesse 09/04/2021
Hitch came in a certain days after order and in great condition. Hitch was easy to assemble and is the best 5th wheel hitch out there!!
Definitely would recommend
Only thing that was disappointing is I was excited to show it off because it is made in the USA but I had no sticker from manufacturer with brand or the famous “made in USA stickers”
by: John08/01/2018
My first impression of the hitch as I was unpacking it was that the fit and finish was superb. The hardware was easy to work with and good instructions. I also ordered the B&W custom rail installation kit and began installing the rails after assembling the hitch. Again, great fit and finish of the hardware but the instructions might need a little bit of modification. All went well until I finished installing the second rail and test fit the hitch. Because of the tight tolerances, I had to loosen all of the hitch bolts in order to get it to drop into the rail slots and pin it, then re-torque the bolts while mounted on the rails. Also, there is a bracket inside the drivers side frame rail that must be relocated. The almost identical kit from Reese includes a new bracket to remount the old bracket that must be moved. The B&W kit does not have this bracket although it was easy to fabricate one.
I am waiting for my new trailer to arrive so I haven't hitched up anything yet. However, I am confident that the B&W hitch will certainly do the job well. I purchased the Patriot hitch based on actual user comments I found on the RV forums and can see now that it is a quality product.
by: Dan B. 09/18/2018
SOLID. Hooking up and dropping off trailer was a breeze with the pivoting head unit. I bought this hitch along with the rail and frame mounting kit (BWRVK2401). Easy enough for one person to install, if you have help it would be easier. Had to drop the DEF tank (2015 Ford F-250), would have been nice to have a wire to fish a bolt and locking star washer through from the inside of the frame without dropping the tank. Also have the Airlift 5000 bags installed and had to drill a hole in the drivers side frame mounting bracket for one of the mounting bolts for the air bag. Overall very happy with everything purchased from etrailer.
by: William 10/01/2022
I absolutely love this fifth wheel. Still looks great and is a simple to use as it gets. And it is made in the USA not in COMMUNIST RED CHINA.
by: David 03/24/2023
The hitch came in two boxes, in excellent condition. I have opened the boxes and all parts are there. I had hand surgery recently so it will be a few weeks before I can fully assemble my hitch. I'll update then.
by: DT08/04/2023
Great service from etrailer.
Great product and I like that it is built in the USA
by: Joseph K02/04/2023
This hitch is light weight and comes apart in two pieces with no tools, making it very easy for one person to remove and store if needed. I love that the main head can adjust fore and aft to give additional turning clearance. Also, its very quiet and NO rattling ever. I have recommended this to other friends and its a hit!

- Reese Sidewinder Compatibility With Andersen AM3200 Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection Hitch SystemYou are partially correct. Andersen Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection isn't compatible with rotating pin boxes like the Reese Sidewinder/Revolution or Lippert Turning Point unless that Sidewinder is locked out using the two bolts as mentioned in the linked instructions. Once locked out, the Sidewinder will act like a typical pinbox and you won't have the additional clearance it typically provides.. Rotating pin boxes rely on a wedge bolted to the underside of the pin box that prevents it...

This allows flexibility in choosing a 5th wheel hitch from any of several brands. The Reese base rail kit you referenced, part # RP30035, is also a standard 5th wheel rail kit that also can accept hitches from many manufacturers. The B and W Patriot rated at 16K, part # BWRVK3200, will fit your rails, as will the Reese # RP30047. The linked article on 5th wheel hitch installation may be helpful to you.
view full answer... - Recommended Air Ride Pin Box and Hitch for Best Ride with Ford F-350 and Keystone Cougar326SRXFor your 2014 Ford F-350 when towing a 5th wheel, the best ride will come from air suspension in the pin box so it doesn't transfer to the truck. The next best option is to use air springs on your truck instead but you don't want to use both as that can simply transfer the bounce back and forth which isn't pleasant until the force dissipates. Since you already have Timbren suspension enhancement on your truck, I recommend using an air ride pin box which is the best option anyway. ...

With that said, I highly recommend the B&W Patriot # BWRVK3200 because of B&W's high quality products. It features a dual-jaw design for a strong connection. The durability is top notch because it went through vigorous testing cycles in both fatigue and static testing. We have seen a couple lube plates get stuck...

I have added links to video reviews of the Patriot and wedge for you to check out as well.

Because the Rambox option significantly narrows the truck bed, the handle can't be pulled out far enough to unlatch the king pin without modifying the hitch in some way which voids the hitch warranty.
