Best Tonneau Cover for a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 6-3/4' bed w/ B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitch

Question

Question:

I have a 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 with the factory puck system in a regular/short bed. I have the B&W companion 5th wheel hitch and want to get a tonneau cover. Is there a cover that will work with my 5th wheel hitch? what do you recommend?

The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3775 has a hitch height of 17" - 19", which is measured from the bed floor to the top of the skid plate. This should not cause any issues with a tonneau cover, it is very common to have a cover over this hitch.

I recommend the RetraxONE MX Hard Tonneau Cover # RTX66VR. This cover is made in the USA and has an easy no drill installation with rails that easily clamp onto your truck bed rails. The retractable design allows for full truck bed access and the locking handle lets you easily open and close the cover, you can also secure it at any point along the rails. I have included a picture of this cover installed with a 5th wheel hitch in the truck bed.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
