5th Wheel Hitch - Fixed Fifth Wheel

...Will a fixed position fifth wheel hitch work in a 6.5 ft bed and not cause turning problems when pulling a 8ft. wide fifth wheel trailer...

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…

Hi Bob; is your Patriot the slider #BWRVK3270 you looked at or the fixed #BWRVK3255? I know you said fixed mount hitch but since you looked at the slider I want to be sure. If it is the fixed hitch you can use the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel…

Yes, the puck system used on the 2016-2019 Chevy/GMC trucks is different than the pucks used on the 2020 and newer trucks. So you would need a 5th wheel like the B&W Companion #BWRVK3710 for your 2020 GMC Sierra 3500 with an 8' Bed. If you…

Hello Joe, thanks for reaching out. If you were to install a B&W Tunoverball Gooseneck Hitch #BWGNRK1020 you would be able to easily transfer your #BWRVK3400 5th wheel hitch to your new truck. If your new 2025 GMC 2500 HD comes with the factory…

Since we don't carry the PullRite line I can't really speak to their quality but from what I can see from there website their 2900 model is fairly similar to the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider #DM89GV. Both hitches offer 14"…

The head alone for the B&W Companion hitch #BWRVK3500 weighs about 70 pounds. Everything else weighs about 130 pounds. So the total weight of the hitch is approximately 200 pounds.

Hey Mike! To answer your first question yes, the Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter #RP59KR can replace the Curt Helux. This is compatible with the Rhino bolt pattern which is the same thing the Helux fits. I don't…

Thank you for the photo of your 2016 Ram 3500's bed rail which sits 59-inches above ground. You are correct that the recommended minimum clearance between a bed rail and the underside of the trailer's overhang is 5 to 6-inches, as shown in…

Hey Bob! It sounds like you have industry standard rails in there right now. Do they look like the picture below and match those measurements? If so, you can use the Curt E16 #C95DR. However, I recommend getting the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer…
