Compatibility of B&W Companion with a Rotaflex Pin Box  

Published 02/19/2022



Question:

I currently have a Curt Q25. I just recently purchased a 2021 Alliance Paradigm 310RL that has a RotaFlex pin box. I understandvia Curt that my hitch is not compatible with the RotaFlex. So I am looking for a solution for a hitch. Does the BandW companion fifth wheel hitch for a 2019 Silverado 3500 puck system work with the RotaFlex pin box?

Expert Reply:

Yes, the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 25,000 lbs item # BWRVK3705 that fits your 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 OEM prep package will work with the Curt Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box item # LC176440.

It looks like your 2021 Alliance Paradigm 310RL has a gross weight capacity of 15,000 lbs. The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs item # BWRVK3700 is also compatible and will fit your Silverado's puck system.

The B&W Companion weighs over 150 lbs. If that's not something you're interested in moving by yourself and don't want to have to rely on someone to help you then I recommend purchasing the B&W 5th Wheel Lifting Device for Companion and Patriot Hitches item # BWRVXA3130. This heavy duty steel tool lets you lift your B&W 5th-wheel hitch from your truck bed with a hoist. The 5th-Wheel jaws clamp around the device for a secure grip.

Don't forget your lube plate. The Lube Plate for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches - 10" Diameter item # RP83002 will prevent scratches on your fifth-wheel's skid plate and ease trailer hookup.
