Question:
Customer looking for a BandW 5th wheel hitch, either the RVK3500 or RVK3400. He has a 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500 with an 8 bed. He does not have the factory puck system, so I believe he will also need the rails and brackets for this hitch as well. Wondering what all he may need. Thanks.

Expert Reply:
The B&W Companion 5th wheel hitches, parts # BWRVK3500 and # BWRVK3400, are great options but since they have a long bed they'll want to use the stationary Companion part # BWRVK3500.
To connect this to the 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500 you'll want to install the Custom Underbed Installation Kit # BWGNRK1020-5W. I really like this whole setup for two reasons; you can tow both 5th wheel and gooseneck trailers with this system, and you get a completely clean bed when you don't have the 5th wheel hitch installed.
I've attached an installation video of the gooseneck hitch on a 2020 Silverado 2500 for your reference.
