What Truck Setup Does B and W Companion Hitch BWRVK3500 Fit

Question

Question:

I have a question about 5th wheel hitches. Does the BandW RVK3500 fit any trucks? Is the hitch set in the bed and attach with the gooseneck connection fitting? Is the gooseneck truck attachment the only thong vehicle specific about the hitch?

The B&W Companion Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # BWRVK3500 fits any truck that has a B and W Turnoverball gooseneck hitch installed it.

So if you had a 2014 Chevy Silverado 2500 you would need the part # BWGNRK1012-5W installed in the bed of the truck.

Answer 6

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…

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.

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…
