Question:
I've been recommended the Curt installation kit for rails on my 2015 chevy Silverado 2500 for use with my Patriot 5th wheel slider hitch. No puck or gooseneck on truck. What r the pros and cons with the Curt vs the BandW kit? Ive heard better reviews with the BandW kit. Thank u.

Expert Reply:
There is no functional difference between the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC # C16411-204 and the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2506 they both will work just fine with the B&W Patriot # BWRVK3270.
B&W does put out a good product and their products are made in the USA, but really it'll come down to cost and brand preference if you have any.
