Expert Reply:
The Reese Sidewinder # SWW-06 can be used with any 5th wheel hitches, except the B&W hitches that install via the Turnoverball. Instead, you will need to use the B&W hitches that install directly into the factory puck systems.
So if you wanted to use the another B&W Hitch besides the Patriot # BWRVK3200, you could also use the B&W Companion # BWRVK3710 for example, since it does not mount into the Turnoverball gooseneck hole. The # BWRVK3710 is meant to be installed into the GM puck package and is specific to their system.
If you are interested, you can provide me with the make and model of your truck and I will be happy to find a hitch compatible with your puck system.
