B&W 20K slider hitch with puck set up was very easy to install
I think this was the right one for me.
They make quality products.
I am happy to promote them



by:

Shipped and delivered as expected. This is an amazing hitch and I needed a replacement head and this came just in time. Greased and ready to go!



by:

The product is great but beware when ordering from etrailer. At least with this item, it has to be shipped in two different shipments. The advertised delivery date it only for the hitch, and not the slider. When making plans, expect at least an extra week beyond what is advertised for shipping. I feel greatly misled. I specifically ordered from etrailer based on the reasonable price and expected shipment date. I can no longer trust them for future orders.



by:

Very well made heavy duty hitch. Its heavy, I put an eye hook into the center of my garage header, then used a chain pully to lift it. Then just back in and centered it over the puck system, I was able to lower it and move it into position perfectly by myself. I did use a hitch lift that locks into the receiver. Don't forget to grease it, under the head, can be done after in place.



by:

This is my second B & W hitch. I love your product. My hitch arrived at my house in record time. Only two days after ordering the B & W hitch, the hitch was sitting in my garage.

Thank you for such a wonderful product!



by:

The B&W top is the perfect replacement part for my stuff that got stolen in Albuquerque.
The Curt gooseneck ball works great.



by:

Damaged. Both pieces came in factory B&W boxes. Both boxes have accessory packets inside. Those accessories are very heavy and not packaged very well. They are free to bounce around in the box and put chips all over in the powder coat paint. Now it is going to rust! For $1300 you think they could use $2 in packing paper. My packages were tossed about by at least a dozen people according to the tracking. All I can say is that this is poor.
Etrailer on the other hand is being very helpful in resolving some of my problems. They are sending a new coupler with no questions asked. The handle is bent from the rough trip making it impossible to use. Amy was a pleasure to work with. Hopefully the next one will be ok.



by:

Installation was fairly easy. Followed the included directions an verified each step with the product video. Drilling a 4 inch hole in the bed of the truck was a different story. But hole lined up perfectly with the center piece an the bolt holes of the bed frame.
The only draw back was there is not enough room to tourqe all the bolts to spec. I moved my smaller 5th wheel last week about 40 miles an will be using it this weekend to move my 40 ft toy hauler.
Great customer service an follow up with this company.

I have had my B&W Companion hitch for over a year now in my truck. Best hitch I have had. Easy to change from 5th wheel to goose neck. No problems. It was easy to install with the assisting video from the e trailer website.



by:

Quick shipping and fits well. Have not used the hitch yet but am sure it will be fine. Trailer resources and shipping are always on point.



by:

Order it and it came on the day it said it would be here that is a big deal for me so many times the orders r late so thank u for being on time As for the product, I have used B&W hitch’s before so I knew the product that I was buying would be good



by:

I was worried that it would be difficult to install. Turns out I managed to change it out in about 15 minutes. The service and promptness of the delivery was excellent. I would highly recommend "etrailer" for any further issues with my 5th wheel hitch.



by:

Thanks Mike, very much appreciated. Looking forward to putting this on my slider base



by:

One of the most stout 5th wheel heads and bases. Very simple and extremely durable. The fact that this head breaks away from the base makes it possible to remove the head and base with only one person and without a lift or getting a hernia.



by:

B&W makes the best 5th wheel hitches. This head replaces an 18,000 lb head that needed to be upgraded to haul heavier 5th wheel
RV’s which I haul as a RV transporter.



by:

Hitch arrived on time, completely satisfied trailers delivery and costumer service.



by:

Great looking heavy well made product and the unit was shipped the night I ordered and received Monday after the Thursday night order. Good phone service with call back service from etrailer when lines are busy so no long on phone hold waiting time waste.

No issues or problems



by:

Product was just as expected great quality. etrailer was excellent to deal with and fast shipping. I received my product a day earlier than expected.



by:

Very happy with all the help and fast service, I will call on you guys again.Thanks



by:

Our problem is that only the head arrived today 7/5/24 and the other part will be arriving 4 days after, so, our trip needed to be canceled because of late arrival of the base item. I can not review the product because I haven’t seeing it yet.



by:

This Head assembly is very well built, I purchase this so when I get a fifth wheel trailer I will be able to tow with confidence. I purchased the base unit used. So I'm all set to tow whatever trailer I purchase!

LOVE THIS SYSTEM EASY TO ATTACH TO MY CAMPER. EASY TO REMOVE FROM THE BED OF THE TRUCK, LEAVING A FLAT CLEAR SURFACE WITH OUT THE CLUTTER OF RAILS TO SLIDE CARGO IN AND OUT . THE 4 WAY MOVEMENT OF THE FIFTH WHEEL PLATE ALLOWS FOR A VERY SMOOTH RIDE WHEN PULLING MY CAMPER WITH LITTLE TO NO SWAY GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND AROUND CORNERS . THE SWINGING LATCH SYSTEM IS GREAT. NO GUESSING FROM INSIDE THE TRUCK IF ITS CONNECTED .ONCE ITS HOOKED JUST DROP IN THE SAFETY PIN AND YOUR READY. ONLY DOWN FALL IS THE HITCH ITSELF IS VERY HEAVY TO MOVE. BUT WHEN THAT IS THE ONLY THING HOLDING THE CAMPER TO MY TRUCK I WOULD RATHER KNOW THAT THE WEIGHT MEANS ITS MADE OF THICK QUALITY STEELE AND COMPONENTS VS THIN LIGHT WEIGHT MATERIAL'S .OVER ALL A VERY GOOD PRODUCT WITH NO ISSUES DEFIANTLY A GREAT PRODUCT.

  • Will the B&W Companion Hitch Head Work W/ Different Companion Bases
    Hey Adam, yes the Replacement Head Assembly for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVC3006 will work with both of those bases.

  • How Much Does The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3775 Weigh
    The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3775 weighs approximately 251lbs. The head # BWRVC3006 is detachable to make it a bit easier to lug around and weighs about 70lbs. The base # BWRVB3775 weighs approximately 181lbs.

  • Will The B&W Companion Slider From 2020 Silverado 1500 Also Fit 2024 3500 8' Bed Puck System?
    Since your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 does not have the option for a factory prep/puck system you will be better switching to the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3715. This will drop into the factory pucks on your 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 long bed dually. The Base # BWRVB3405 you have on your B&W Companion Slider # BWRVK3400 is very large and bulky and if you were to transfer your current Head # BWRVC3006 to either the 20K Base # BWRVB3710 or 25K Base # BWRVB3715 you...

  • How Much Does B&W Companion With Slider Weigh
    The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3775 weighs 251 lbs fully assembled. The base # BWRVB3775 is 181 lbs and the head # BWRVC3006 is 70 lbs. This is confirmed to fit your 2024 Silverado 2500 with the prep package.

  • Parts Needed To Upgrade from a 20K B&W Companion RVK3715 to 25K On a 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500
    You will only need to use the 25K Base # BWRVB3715 with the Head # BWRVC3006 from your 20K Companion # BWRVK3710 to use in your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 long bed with factory in bed puck system. This combination will give you the B&W 25K Companion # BWRVK3715. You might consider getting the entire hitch as it will be much easier to sell your 20K Hitch # BWRVK3710 to offset some of the cost of the stronger 25K 5th wheel hitch.

  • Will B&W Companion Slider Base For Ford Fuper Duty Puck System Fit B&W Companion Head For Chevy
    Yes you can do exactly that; the B&W Companion uses the same # BWRVC3006 head unit on both hitches, and since you already have that head unit from the Companion hitch on your Chevy, you can simply purchase the Companion sliding base that fits your Ford Super Duty with the puck system. So what you need is the following: - Replacement Slider Base for B&W OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Ford Towing Prep Package # BWRVB3370

  • Using B&W Companion Slider on 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500 & 2024 Ram 2500 With OEM Puck Systems
    Hey Henry, The B&W Companion 5th wheel head # BWRVC3006 does fit the bases for the Companion slider hitches for the 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500 and for the 2024 Ram 2500. So what I'd do is just buy the full hitch for one truck and then the base for the other truck. So one of the following: - B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3775 with Replacement Slider Base - Ram Towing Prep Package # BWRVB3670 OR - B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer...

  • Will B&W Companion Head from 20k Hitch Fit 25k Base for 2024 GMC Sierra 3500
    The head # BWRVC3006 you have now has a 25,000 lb GTW so it is compatible with the higher rated base # BWRVB3715. As far as the settings go, it might not be the same as it was for your old setup. There are a lot of factors, especially on the truck, so it depends on both the truck and the trailer. To determine the correct setting you will need to park your truck on level ground. Use your landing gear/trailer jacks to level your 5th wheel. Measure from the ground to the bottom of the king...

  • Can The Base Of A B&W Companion Hitch For Ford OEM Be Replaced With A Chevy OEM Base
    Yes, you can definitely replace just the base of your B&W Companion hitch with a slider designed to fit your new 2023 Chevy Silverado 3500's puck system. You'll need the Replacement Slider Base # BWRVB3775 and can simply pull the two pins that connect the hitch head # BWRVC3006 to the pivot arms and swap it over to the new base. Removing the head during installation/removal from your truck will also help lighten the load. The slider base is around 181lbs so you'll definitely want to have...

  • Which Pivot Arm is Needed For B&W Companion RVK3500 5TH Wheel Hitch?
    The Replacement Pivot Arm "A" # BW3035A you found will fit on either the left or right hand side of your B&W Companion Base # BWRVB3500. You will need a Replacement Pivot Arm "B" # BW3035B for the opposite side of the "A" arm. These arms are positioned based on the clearance you need. I have linked the instructions for the B&W Companion # BWRVK3500 below which explain the different mounting positions for the arms to ensure the Head Assembly # BWRVC3006 to positioned correctly.

  • Will Current B&W Head Fit B&W RVK3000 Base
    The # BWRVC3200 you were looking at will not fit since it is designed for the Patriot. The Patriot and Companion are not interchangeable. However, you can add the Replacement Head Assembly for B&W Companion # BWRVC3006. It has an even higher rating but you will be limited by the capacity of the base. It will be the same height as what you have now.

  • Will My Older B&W Companion Head Fit the BWRVB3305 Base
    Yes, the B&W Companion line of 5th Wheel Hitches all use the same head, which is part # BWRVC3006. So, if that is what you have then it will fit the Replacement Base for B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVB3305. I also confirmed that the Replacement Base # BWRVB3305 is confirmed to fit your 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty (8 Foot Bed) with OEM Prep Package. For extra security, I recommend replacing the cam-action handle pin with a padlock like # ML4140LH. I have included a few...

  • Can the Head On the B&W Companion Gooseneck Adapter Be Used On a B&W Companion OEM 25K Chevy Base
    Yes, the Head Assembly for B&W Companion part # BWRVC3006 which comes with the B&W Companion Slider Adapter part # BWRVK3400 can be used with the Replacement Base for B&W Companion OEM Chevy/GMC part # BWRVB3700 or the Replacement Base for B&W Companion OEM Chevy/GMC part # BWRVB3705. The weight capacity of the system will come from the base, not the head therefore if you were to obtain the B&W Companion OEM Chevy/GMC part # BWRVB3705 you would have a 25,000 lb weight capacity.

  • How Much Do the Components for the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitch for Chevy/GMC Puck System Weigh?
    Yes, I do and have listed them below: The Replacement Base for B&W Companion item # BWRVB3710 weighs 83 lbs. The Replacement Head Assembly for B&W Companion item # BWRVC3006 weighs 70 lbs. The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package item # BWRVK3710 weighs 153 lbs and is confirmed to fit the factory puck system in a 2023 GMC Sierra 3500.

  • Why Would Replacement B and W Companion Head Seem Too Wide at Pivot Arms For Install
    I spoke with my contact at Blue Ox and he informed me that based on what you described it is possible that you received the coupler head for the Patriot and not the Companion like you need. He asked me to have you double check that you see the part number RVC3006 on the box that the head came in. Our part number for this is # BWRVC3006. If the box has the part number RVC3200 you have the Patriot head. Our part number for this is the part # BWRVC3200. If not email us back with a picture...

    The B&W Companion Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # BWRVK3500 will require you to have a B&W Turnover Ball # BWGNRK1320 on your 2020 Ram 3500. With most trucks having the factory in bed hitch prep/puck system we do have the Base # BWRVB3600 which will fit with the Head # BWRVC3006 off your Companion to create the B&W OEM Companion # BWRVK3600. This will fit into the outer 4 mounting holes of the factory in bed hitch prep package.

    Yes, your 3000 series head will work with the newer hitches. The bases were the only parts that changed when they upgraded their hitches for the 20,000lb ratings they currently have. Just to confirm the Replacement Base # BWRVB3710 is a 20,000lb base that is designed to fit the new 2020+ Chevrolet/GMC 2500/3500 OEM puck system. There is also a 25,000lb Replacement Base # BWRVB3715 if you require a higher weight rating. Both of these bases use the same head # BWRVC3006 which is what you...

  • How to Use B&W Companion on 2019 Ram 3500 Long Bed Dually
    If the B&W Companion you used on your 2014 Longhorn was designed to fit the factory puck system then it would fit the puck system on a 2019 Ram 3500 as well, but since you don't have the OEM puck system you just need to install the Custom Underbed Installation Kit # BWGNRK1320 and then use the Companion Base # BWRVB3500 with the Companion Head Assembly # BWRVC3006 that you currently have. This gives you the stationary Companion # BWRVK3500 which fits directly into the gooseneck receiver...
