Question:
I just purchased a 2018 GMC 3500 HD single rear wheel truck. It has the 5th wheel package already installed in the bed of rhe truck. What is the best 15000-16-lb. hitch to for the pre installed holes with at least 4 inches of vertical adjustment to level the camper?

Helpful Expert Reply:
The best fifth wheel hitch to fit your 2018 GMC Sierra 3500HD with the factory rail kit is the B and W Companion part # BWRVK3700 for if you have a long bed or part # BWRVK3770 which is a slider for if you have a short bed. The Companion hitches are the best hitches around. They are very quiet, easy to use, and reliable.
These have about 3 inches of vertical adjustment which is plenty for nearly all applications but if you need more the pin box of your trailer can also install in different frame holes to give a different height as well.
