If you had a fifth wheel rail kit installed in the bed of your truck that the B and W Patriot hitch part # BWRVK3255 fit we have the Curt Spyder adapter part # 16085 will fit the rails and give you a gooseneck hitch ball in the bed of your truck. Reason being that the Patriot hitch is designed to fit the industry standard fifth wheel rails that most hitches out there are designed to fit. This is what the Spyder is also designed to fit too.

If you add the 16085 to the patriot, what is it now rated for? If you add the 30,000 lb plate C35HR, what is the rating?

@Mike Both of the gooseneck adapters part # 16085 and # C35HR would replace the Patriot fifth wheel hitch and fit into the same rails. The capacities would be 25 and 30k respectively as they become the capacity of the rails.

Answer 1

Hey Shawn, the Curt Spyder adapter part #C35HR that you referenced has a 30k towing capacity. That's more than most gooseneck hitches as well as most fifth wheel hitches so I would say it has more capacity than you would end up needing.

Answer 7

Hey Steve, The B&W Patriot #BWRVK3255 you have would require base rails or a gooseneck hitch and an adapter in order to mount to the bed of the F-250. If you want to go with base rails then I recommend the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base…

Answer 12

You are correct that the Demco 5th Wheel Base Rail Adapter #DM6140 cannot be used with an auto-sliding hitch. This is due to the extra torque/twist that a hitch like this puts on the adapter and its connection to the gooseneck hole in the truck bed.…
