Question:
what is the difference between the B&W companion BWRVK3775 and the B&W BWGNXA2061 for my 2022 chevy silverado 3500 short bed with oem pucks?

The most major difference between the B&W Companion # BWRVK3775 and the B&W Ball and Safety Chain Kit # BWGNXA2061 is that the # BWRVK3775 is designed for a 5th-wheel coupler while the # BWGNXA2061 is designed for a gooseneck coupler. The benefit of the Companion is that it has a sliding feature that is great for making sharp turns with your trailer as well as three different height settings.
With that being said, both of these accessories are compatible with your OEM pucks on your 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 short bed. Also, both are made in the USA.
In choosing between these two systems, I recommend the Companion for the sliding feature and the height settings. You also do not need safety chains like you would with the B&W Ball and Safety Chain kit.
