Question:
Hi, can I buy just the base of the BW Companion sliding Fifth Wheel Hitch for the Ford OEM prep package? I had a BW Patriot Hitch so I have the locking jaw portion from that hitch if they are compatible. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
If you had a Companion already you could use the # BWRVB3300 or # BWRVB3370 to make the head compatible with the Ford OEM prep package. However, the Patriot head will not work with the Companion base. Since you have a short bed and need the slider that also means a rail adapter will not work. It isn't ideal but the only option is to sell the Patriot and get the Companion # BWRVK3370.
