You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
The OEM prep package consists of 4 "pucks" in the bed of the truck that will allow you to drop in puck style hitches for easy installation and removal, that gives you a completely clear bed when not in use. The B&W Companion OEM 5th…
Hey Jerry, GM moved the placement of their puck systems starting with 2020 models so you are correct that the pucks would have the hitch not sit directly over the axle. GM did the math and made sure that this placement wouldn't adversely affect…

Hey James, welcome back. That B&W item #BWRVK3670 is super reliable but you are not the only one who's had issues with how heavy it is. Love how you have already attempted our go to solution of taking off the lightest portion of the hitch. I…
Hey Steve! The PullRite SuperGlide #PUL83RR will not contact the tailgate on your 2025 GMC Sierra 2500. They have tested this extensively and said making contact and causing damage is not a concern. This is a really great hitch and autoslide is the…
