Yes, the Head Assembly for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches - 25,000 lbs item # BWRVC3006 does fit in the Companion Slider bases. The capacity will be reduced to 20,000 lbs though. There are two options depending on whether or not your Sierra 3500 has the factory puck system. If you don't have the puck system you will want the Replacement Slider Base for B&W Companion Slider 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # BWRVB3405. If you do have the puck system you will need the Replacement Slider Base for B&W Companion Slider 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # BWRVB3775.

The B&W Companion weighs over 250 lbs with the slider. 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.
