• Can B&W Companion be Used to 5th Wheel Tow with 15 Chevy Silervado 1500 with 5-1/2 Bed
  The Custom Underbed Installation Kit # BWGNRK1057-5W will fit your 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 with the 5-1/2' bed and while you can technically use the Companion Slider # BWRVK3400-5W, it (and any other standard slider hitch) will not provide enough turning clearance for your trailer and 5th wheel trailer. Since you have a 5-1/2' bed you need something that will give you at least 22" of turning clearance and we do have a few options for you. The first option is to use the Demco 13K Autoslider...

• Fifth Wheel Hitch For A 2017 GMC Sierra With A 6-1/2 Foot Bed
  For your 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 with a 6-1/2 foot bed we recommend using a slider hitch. I recommend the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider Item # BWRVK3270 and the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails Item # BWRVK2503. B&W are well known for the quality of their hitches. It has much thicker steel than other brands. The articulating head sits on durable rubber pads so it does not rattle as others do when not in use. Due to the bed being 6-1/2 foot, the slide feature allows...

• Will B&W Patriot Work on 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500 With 5-1/2 Foot Bed
  You can use a B&W Patriot 5th wheel hitch on your 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500, but not the sliding option - or any sliding 5th wheel hitch. The reason for that is you don't have the needed clearance to make a sharp turn and a 5th wheel trailer will hit your truck cab. So to tow a 5th wheel with your 5-1/2 foot bed '14 Silverado 1500 you need a fixed hitch and a Sidewinder rotating pin box. For the hitch: - B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3200 - B&W Custom Installation Kit with...

• Can 5th Wheel Trailer be Towed with 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTZ with 6 Lift and 5-1/2 Bed
  You still might be able to tow a 5th wheel trailer with your 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTZ even though it does have a 6" lift and the 5-1/2' bed. What you'll need to do so is install the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # BWRVK2503 (you'll need to contact B&W for the brackets to make this compatible with your MagneRide Suspension) because it doesn't require drilling and then I recommend using the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30928 because it has a hitch height range of...

  It sounds like you might just be looking for a fifth wheel hitch for your 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 with 6-1/2' bed and if that's the case then we do have some great options but you will need a sliding hitch for cab clearance.

• Recommendation on a Lightweight 5th Wheel Hitch for Short Box 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  We do have a solution for you but it is not the Andersen Ultimate Connection 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch System with Adapter, # AM3200. While this is a great hitch for specific purposes, primarily for lighter weight rigs and utility/work trailers it unfortunately will not work for your application in a short bed truck. For your 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with a short bed you will either need a hitch mounted in the truck along with a rotating turret type pin box on the RV to make turning...

• 5th Wheel Hitch Compatible With Rotating Pin Box on 5-1/2 Foot Bed 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500
  Most - but not all - 5th wheel hitches are compatible with a rotating pin box on your camper. So the 5th wheel hitch I recommend for your 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 with a 5-1/2 foot bed that is compatible with a rotating pin box is the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30047.

• Do I Need a Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 w/ a 6-1/2' Bed?
  Since your 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 has the shorter 6-1/2' bed you are going to want to use the sliding B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # BWRVK3270. Without the slider you won't be able to make tight turns or back up without hitting your 5th wheel trailer. If you need a set of 5th wheel rails, I recommend the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails item # BWRVK2503. These are custom fit and install in predrilled holes in your Silverado's frame.

• Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch And Pin Box For A 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali 5.5' Bed MagneRide
  Since your 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali with MagneRide suspension has a 5-1/2' bed you'll have to use a sidewinder pin box to help prevent the nose of your 5th wheel from coming into contact with the cab of your truck. Pin boxes have specific bolt patterns so you'll have to know what model pin box your 5th wheel currently has on it. For example, the Reese # RP34FR will fit a Lippert 1621 pin box bolt pattern. Because of your MagneRide suspension there is only one option for the rails and...

• Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch And Base Rails That Fit A 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 6-1/2 Foot Bed
  I took a look at what is offered for your 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, and It does not appear than Reese offers an under-bed installation kit for your Reese Elite Series hitch. With that being said, since there is no installation kits for your truck, you unfortunately won't be able to use your hitch; However, I do have another possible solution for you. I know it's not an ideal situation, but since you aren't able to use your hitch I recommend investing in a new setup. If you're interested,...

• Is There An Adapter To Connect A PullRite SuperGlide To A B&W Turnoverball Hitch
  Typically when someone is wanting to use an rail style hitch when there's a gooseneck hitch already in place they can simply use an adapter like # 16310. Unfortunately in your case the PullRite SuperGlide isn't going to be compatible with an adapter since it has a flat base and doesn't arch up to clear the middle supports of the adapter. Because of this you would unfortunately have to either remove the turnoverball hitch or use a different 5th wheel hitch that was compatible with it....
