Best 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty 5th Wheel Hitches

Hitch works great, can now hook up to trailer without having to stop & put up tailgate, then finish backing up. Tailgate would hit front of trailer when hooking up. The two things I didn’t like as well as others, the box with the base unit was tore up, but unit was fine , and the cotter pins for puck latches need to include extras, or make holes bigger for keeper pins. Also added small chains to hairpins that hold look pins for top so they don’t get lost.

Adam E was great to work with! He was very knowledgeable and helpful in assisting me in picking out the 5th wheel hitch and making sure I received it in time for my trip. I ordered it on Monday and received it on Wednesday! The B&W Companion hitch fit perfect on my F-350 and was easy to install. The instructional videos on the website are great!! Will definitely buy from etrailer again! Thanks!

Everything went as planned from ordering to the installation. Thanks to etrailer for another successful order.

ETrailer is absolutely the best. They repeatedly overdrive on their commitments. I am always impressed either the quality of their customer service, the speed of their shipping, and their prices. Now the hitch, B&W is top notch. The products are always high quality down to the smallest components. This hitch, like the slider that's on my other truck, is seriously heavy duty and I cannot imagine it failing in any situation. I am confident that no matter the circumstance the hitch will not be if concern.

I have not towed with it yet but the build quality is excellent. The finish is perfect. The slider function is very smooth. It was very easy to get in the truck, but not sure that is unique to any modern puck system. The cotter pin on the castle bolts on the puck locking handles were a bit finicky. It is heavy, but not as heavy as I thought. I think I have a few more years in me for moving it myself!

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

It preforms as described. For me it was difficult to get the base correctly set up so the hitch would easily remove out of the trunk bed then reinstall. I actually had to assemble the hitch in the trunk to get all of the parts to correctly align. My concern is what would happen if the hitch is rotated beyond the gears. The trailer can rotate beyond the limitation of the gears. The picture shows the hitch at full rotation but as you can see the trunk could still rotate farther without contact to the cab.

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

There is a very pronounced clunking and jolting at times when turning from a stopped or slowed position. Perhaps it’s more the angle (90 degrees) than the speed.

Love this hitch. While it is heavy it provides the stability and auto slide capability that I need to comfortably drive my 5th wheel thousands of miles. I have never had my 5th wheel contact my cab no matter how tight I turn.

Super quick and easy installation. Haven’t used yet but seems well built and really solid!

We have ordered a few times from E-Trailer, always receive as promised. Customer service is very helpful. They are our go to for RV parts & accessories.

Finally got my new B&W Companion Gooseneck to 5th wheel hitch installed in the bed of my 2024 Ford F250 Lariat. While I have not pulled my fifth wheel yet, I have hooked up to check clearances, etc. first thing I noticed was how easy hooking up and unhooking was with this witch. This hitch is solid and I look forward to many miles traveling with it. My truck has 6.7 foot bed and in the picture I will send you will notice I still had room for a 43 gallon auxiliary fuel tank. Thanks to etrailer for their help with purchase.

I wanted to be able to easily utilize my truck bed and this hitch provides that in spades! Easy to remove and install. I absolutely have to give a shout out to Paula on customer service. She was amazing! My first shipment was damaged and missing a vital part. Paula had another one shipped right away and made my return shipment a breeze. She stayed in contact with me to the end. I felt like she shared in my joy once the install was complete! The hitch is super adjustable for optimal placement in the bed and height of the trailer. Make a few quick measurements and it just goes together quickly. Love the dual jaw release lever. Our last 5th wheel hitch had the standard pull to release lever and it was often very difficult to operate. This lever style is a game changer. Overall, I couldn't be more pleased with the product and customer service!

Shawnee, took my order and answered my questions. the package arrived quickly with everything enclosed in great shape. Thank you etrailer.com I will continue to be a customer due to your great service.

Everything fit just right. Only problem I had was getting to the installation instructions with the QR code that sent me to purchasing a new hitch.

The hitch came in two boxes, one for the head and one for the side legs. The head box (coroplast) was perfect but the legs box (cardboard) was all but destroyed. The legs were not well packed and have several scuffs / scratches in the paint. Some right down to the steel needing repaint. Overall the hitch is a heavy, high quality unit and fit the truck perfectly.

I haven't used the hitch yet, but while installing it I noticed: 1) the 4 bolts which connect the hitch head to its legs, or base boxes, are a smaller diameter than the 8 bolts that hold the pin box onto my 40' 5th wheel trailer, and 2) when mounting the legs into the 5th wheel prep package on my 2019 F350, I found that a snug adjustment is not possible, because of one or both of these design choices: a) coarse thread bolts are used here (vs. fine thread), and/or b) there is only one hole through each of the 4 base mounting bolts for the cotter pin to go through, so the castle nuts can only be made tighter or looser by turning the nut 1/6th of a revolution. This means that when you lock the hitch down by rotating the handles 90 degrees, that the locked-in position either feels too loose or too tight because 1/6th of a revolution of the nut is too much. If these bolts had a 2nd hole in them (or were fine thread) that would allow a 1/12th of a nut rotation adjustment. Smaller nut height adjustment would also mean a much greater potential of being able to adjust the locking levers to a firm pressure setting.

Works great

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.

This hitch works extremely well. The slide is nice if you get into any tight cornering situations. The hitch top and base separate making it a bit easier to mount and unmount.The lock washer used with the mounting bolt that draws up against the gooseneck pin broke on the 2nd use. I had 2 different torque wrenches set to 79 lbs that I tested the bolt with. Unsure why it broke. But overall we love this hitch and we pull a 38f 5ver without issue. Very smooth ride.

There is a slapping noise or a bumping coming from the fifth wheel can't seem to find it and I don't know if something is wearing out been finding metal shaving in the bed not big one's but enough to concern me though maybe you might have some insight about this? This starting happening about 6 months of Use.

Good thing that etrailer.com put the Curt A16 box in a larger box for shipping. The outer box took a beating, but the inner box was barely harmed. Curt should have put padding between the two Ford OIM legs, they scratched each other a bit. The unit installed as per directions, and it looks great. Can't wait for our custom ordered RV to arrive. Thanks to etrailer.com for excellent review videos, and reading the FAQs helped me make my final decision as to which hitch to go with.

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.

I received my #20000 curt hitch with slider rail a couple of days ago. The problem is I received two slider rails and no top hitch. I called etrailer to inquire about the shipment. The folks on the line were very helpful. They reordered the hitch head and made arrangements to have the extra slider rail picked up at my house which will happen in a couple of days if all goes well. Mistakes happen and I will see how it is corrected. I will wright another review when the hitch head arrives.

A great price shipped fast via freight. No issues with broken boxes as many others have mentioned. First fifth wheel for me, assembly and install into the factory Ford pucks was amazingly easy. Do not know for certain if the slider will be necessary for our new Arctic Wolf camper. We may swap out for stationary legs if we can get away with it. I love etrailer!

This is my first 5th wheel hitch. Great looks, build quality, and component is easy to operate correctly for a confident hitching experience. Highly recommended. As a plus, the modularity of the assembly easily facilitates upgrade to a higher capacity hitch or component repair if needed. Easy to keep clean and maintain.

I like the Reese hitch for my Ford F350, it pulls great and has no signs of wear on the hitch after pulling for over 5320 miles.

Truly happy with this product and can't wait to go to work! etrailer sent me everything I requested and the installer had no problems. Everything was packed well in shipping with no problems.

I’m very happy with the ease of ordering and the information videos that Curt had available before I made my purchase. When I received myQ24 hitch it was great quality and very easy to assemble it also works better than expected. Thank you etrailer

Love how this comes apart making it EASY to remove from truck bed and re-install. Easy to assemble with standard hand tools and torque wrench. When the snow clears here in Montana I will THEN hookup the 5th wheel to the hitch. By the end of camping season 2025 I will return to provide an update. Photos show one box (hitch head) that UPS delivered promptly without damage. The other box (hitch base) UPS took on a tour of the east coast and as a result was loaded and off-loaded from many many more trucks. The boxes aren't designed for that. Result was a torn-up box that UPS tried to keep together with tape. Fortunately, the contents were 'contained' within the box, and nothing was damaged as a result. That issue is not a B&W nor an eTrailer fault in my opinion.

Etrailer quick delivery 3 days to Cali. Hitch is Very stout construction excellent welding, very easy to assemble! My only negative response is that the packaging. Hitch had a couple scratches due to it bouncing around while in transit. B&W should improve their packaging.

The hitch came in 3 separate packages, all in the same delivery. Each package came with parts documents, care and assembly instructions. I did the assembly alone. Assembly was fairly easy, just cumbersome due to weight. During assembly, I believe the instructions have the center bolt inserted from the outside; not possible to clear the leg frame so I had to finagle the nut while inserting the bolt from the inside. I initially assembled the hitch unattached to the truck bed. When complete, I could not get the pucks to align with holes in the bed. I loosened the legs, set in the bed and tightened the bolts, which then made for a perfect fit. I have my hitch set to the highest setting for ensured bed rail to camper clearance; might lower later on. The hitch is easy to use; no issues connecting or disconnect the camper. I did have to replace the fifth wheel to base hitch pin clips with shorter ones because when the camper tilted, the clips got bent (unknown to me, the clips went vertical and could not clear the tilt of the fifth wheel and base). Wasn't a big deal to me, but could present an issue if not recognized. It is possible for the pins to contact the base as well. I use a neoprene or plastic disc on the hitch so I don't have to grease the wheel; makes for a clean and easier removal /installation. But as you can see, there are gouges/scratches just from normal connecting and disconnecting. I remove the fifth wheel from the base when removing/installing hitch just to reduce weight. Even without the wheel, the base assembly is still heavy. Overall, I think this is a good hitch; with that being said, this is the only brand fifth wheel hitch I've ever used and this one here is the only brand fifth wheel hitch I've ever owned.

We are VERY happy with this Reese hitch! It is far superior to the Pull Rite Hitch we had. Thank you as always for your prompt, perfect delivery and for this excellent product!! Easy to install. High quality! 5 Stars!

I have ran a cheap competitor hitch for several years. A manufacturing defect (welded pivot pin) caused the hitch to fail and resulted in 18000$ damage to my truck and trailer. I chose the Curt 25000# hitch after much research and found it to be very well made and clearly shows when it is properly coupled. It is quiet and operates with minimal klunking and chunking going down the road. Overall I am very pleased.

Mounted this hitch on my flatbed 3500 Ram and the hitch works flawlessly. Pull 44' tri-axle weighing in at 23,000# with ease. Very easy to use and understand, very easy to maintain.

The B&W hitch is extremely high quality The fit and finish and how easy it works Is well worth the few extra bucks. And it made in America. Go B&W etrailer made it so easy thank you etrailer

Great customer service from Amyl. I changed out a pull rite to a patriot 5th wheel hitch. Using my pull rite bed rails. Amy knew they would swap straight over. No problem easy easy. Cheers

The new lower base for the Demco hitch arrived on Tuesday via Freight it was a great interaction the driver I actually knew from a previous delivery, me and a friend were able to lift the old one out of the bed of my truck and install the new one today and all I have to say is... PERFECT FIT! It appears that Demco has already redesigned the lower base compared to my original one to prevent this problem from happening again. I was actually kind of shocked to see that upgrade and change. I cannot say enough good words about you with etrailer and Demco working with me to get this problem solvedm Yes it took a little bit of work, ultimately this time we got it. I cannot thank you guys enough. My friend and I will be finalizing the installation and getting it locked down to the bed with a few custom spacers for the lower rails this weekend. Here are a few pictures of the installation resuming. If I remember , when I finally pick up my new camper, I'll send some pictures along too. Have to give credit where credit is due . Not sure of you have a customer wall at HQ. I know we had one in my old shop. Anyway.. thank you again .

Has to do a little assembly, really easy. Tows super nice, when turning does move towards the back. You’ll need to adjust the guides for the fifth wheel.
