Best 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 Gooseneck Hitches

I installed this yesterday, along with the Companion 5th Wheel Hitch. Very good instructions, well written, great illustrations. Everything fit perfectly, no struggles with alignment. Very good hardware. Looks to be very sturdily built, the welds looks great. One thing to look out for - on my 2016 Chev 3500 anyway, the exhaust is in the way of drilling the passenger side retractable chain hook holes. You will need an angle drill or drill with a flexible extension cable. Or get your steel rule out and do some serious measuring like I did and drill the holes from the top down. I drilled the accessible driver's side, then transposed those measurements to the passenger side and drilled from the top using a small drill. After hitting the hole, I used progressively larger drills until I found the edge of the 1/2" hole in the center plate, then hogged out the hole the rest of the way with a Dremel grinder. Not a big deal, just had to get a little creative. Over all, excellent experience, from the purchase, the help from customer service (fantastic people!), fast delivery and easy install. Highly recommended!

The installation videos are pretty accurate all around. Admittedly, this took me a little longer than the projected time frame, which I anticipated. Removing the driver side wheel well insert also made torquing the bolts there easier. Installation would likely be easier with a buddy, and reaching the torque specifications on several bolts was difficult with a standard 1/2 inch drive torque wrench, but it was all possible and fit 100% perfectly. Excellent conversion for my 3500 8foot bed. Next step is to get the matching fifth wheel hitch and purchase our dream RV.

Big fan of the B&W Hitches. I can easily switch between by gooseneck ball and fifth wheel head easily and still don't have to worry about the in bed rails being in the way. Plus, they're American made! I received the hitch on time and actually earlier than expected. Fairly easy to install. There are two bolts that are kind of a pain, one is in a tight spot above the fuel tank, and the other is hard to tighten with the safety pin for the ball in the way - had to use an open-end wrench to get those tightened. Regardless, got it in with just one person in about an hour and a half.

Watch the video and the intsallation will go well. Toughest part is fighting the inner fender. I rigged a boat winch supported by a 2x4 to hoist the center section in place to bolt to the cross rails. This made it easy with help to crank it up into place and hold it while it was bolted to the rails. Total intallation came out looking perfect. Every part fit together perfectly.

One year ball is already peeling, one of chain hooks is to small it works but moves around. Would not buy again!!!

Exactly as described and was easy to install.

I got a Curt gooseneck C607-604 and installed it on our '15 Chevy 3500 pick-up. No problems with the installation. It was shipped and arrived quickly. Altogether a very good experience dealing with Etrailer. Great price! Thank you and looking forward to dealing with you again.

Fast service, everything is there and as described, I would buy here again. Thank You Andy

Received the products I ordered immediately and in great condition. Product design was outstanding as it fits perfectly and is very easy for on off.

The installation was simple. B&W made a solid hitch. Very happy with it. etrailer was great to work with

First, my critique of trailer: item was well packaged and shipped fast, but if you order more than one item you have to watch your status, as a single back ordered item will hold up your entire order with no notification unless you see the delay and you tell them to split the order. As for the hitch: I’ve been a long time loyal B&W customer and still am. Installation instructions were easy to follow and very detailed. Everything went in as described except I had to trim a bit off a heat shield which wasn’t mentioned. Only complaint is peeling paint from part of the center piece. This is the second time I’ve had to touch up a B&W product during installation. No signs of mishandling, the powder coat just didn’t bond in some areas.

Product was delivered on-time even right before the Holidays. Fit perfectly!!!

I purchased the Curt Spyder Hitch for our GMC 3500 truck to pull a 24 ft stock combo horse trailer. The rails were already in the truck when we bought it. Easy to install and take off when not needed. Pulls great. etrailer had the best price, and has great service. Very pleased with product. We needed a hitch that was centered and not offset for our truck and this was the one.

The hitch is very solid and fit like a glove. Very well designed. Instructions were clear and accurate. Installed this on my 2016 Mega cab 3500 in a couple of hours by myself. Hitched up the camper and took a short trip, no problems at all.

Both Cathy and George were awesome to deal with and the product is just what I need. Can't wait to use etrailer.com again. Hitch and brackets are very well made and heavy construction.

Accurate install directions, fantastic fit and operates perfectly for my 5th wheel RV

After receiving the parts that were missing from the original order, the hitch was finally installed today, it took more then the 3 hours the video implied, I haven't pulled with it yet, but looking forward to it.. The company was very courteous, very helpful, shipped the missing part promptly. I will do business with them again.

For the price of the product, packaging was terrible, product arrived with paint missing from several large areas due to shipping damage. Box was barely intact when it arrived. Also was missing one of the large grade 8 4.25” long bolts. So after a trip to the hardware store to replace the missing bolt and buy some paint to fix the damaged finish, got it installed pretty easy.

Excellent underbody hitch system. Installation went well once the body was off. If your installing on a late model ford you may want to be sure you have new bed bolts available. Ford says they are not reusable for some reason but it did not matter in my case. Even though I put PB rust blaster on 2 days in advance the cage nuts broke the cage and spun. Ended up having to grind the tops off to remove the body and then using some heat to custom bend a box end wrench to get into the box frame so I was able to remove the (now) studs. This was on a 4 year old truck but New England winters at work here i’m sure. Once the body was off installation was a breeze. Fit is perfect.

I love my hitch . I love how I can turn it over and I can still have use of the full truck bed. I could of bought a cheaper hitch but the quality is by far better than other hitches I have owned in the past. Customer service was great after they helped me fix my ordering mistake. Very happy with my hitch.

I was very satisfied from ordering to instillation. Great people and very concerned about your satisfaction. Instructions were complete and easy to follow. Saved approximately 50% in cost. Thanks etrailer

2021 Sierra 2500 standard box. Item arrived pretty quick with all parts included and no damage. Instructions for the install are, in my opinion, not very detailed and left me having to figure several things out on my own. Biggest pain was having to drop the fuel tank a few inches to access the hole in the driver-side frame rail to fish wire the one bolt for the side plate. Unsure why this info was missing as I would imagine anyone installing this on the same truck would have the same issue of not having enough clearance for the fish wire procedure. The front and rear rails are 0.25” in length different and are not labeled - be prepared to measure and appropriately install in the correct position with the holes closer to the bottom (this is poorly referenced in the instructions and leaves additional room for error and time). The install took me about 7 hours (no help). Finished product is nice and sturdy. The ball ends up being about 4-5” forward the rear axle. I tried to find this info prior to purchasing, but could not. I use an extang hard tri-fold tonneau cover that does not flip fully up toward the cab and was concerned I would have to remove each time I hooked up a gooseneck. It appears that I will have to remove for most applications due to clearance issues, so less than ideal. Operates as intended and should bring many years of trouble free service.

Have not attempted install yet but looks well made and straight fowrard instructions

I got a reduce price on a B&W weld in five wheel ball mount do to cosmetic scathing on tow ball which was almost non excestant save 65 dollars as usual B&W makes the most high qaulty parts and e trail are always excellent shipping was faster than they said. Thx again for passing on the savings to the customer

The installation was simple. B&W made a solid hitch. Very happy with it. etrailer was great to work with

This definitely is not a plug and play mechanism. There is interference with the lever to unlock the ball and it hitting one of the bolts. I had to shave the bolt down to make it even slide by, in addition to this I had to cut about 1/4” off the mechanism lever for it to open all the way and not hit the bracket on the truck. So in summary I had to make two cuts into the product to make it even function properly. Poor quality control.

customer assistance was excellent. I called on two different days with different sales representative, but got the same great assistance. Product arrived quickly and was exactly what I ordered. I will use them again
