Those look to be the slide flange-to-flange measurements, and we do have the correct slide toppers in black for each of them:

- 74 Inch Measurement: Solera RV Slide-Out Awning # LCV000168105

- 159 Inch Measurement: Solera RV Slide-Out Awning # LCV000168110

- 188 Inch Measurement: Solera RV Slide-Out Awning # LCV000435661

It also looks like you have the slide prep, so what you would also need for easy installation is one of the access kits for each slide topper, the Solera Slide Topper Access Kit - Black # LC795354.

Hi Glen, It will depend on what the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) is of your trailer to determine which B&W 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter will work best for you. Fifth wheels and gooseneck trailers go off of pin weight instead of tongue…

Answer 9

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…
