Question:
I will pull a fifth wheel Brinkly Z3100 with a 2024 Ford F250. Should I purchase the fifth wheel Prep Package $550 when I buy the truck? What hitch do you suggest?
asked by: Dan R
Expert Reply:
I suggest you do that, Dan. It's going to keep your bed clear from rails, and will have an overall more tidy appearance sincce the pucks are recessed in the bed.
For a 5th wheel recommendation, you can't go wrong with the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Ford Super Duty Prep Package # BWRVK3305.
This hitch is American made, has a 25K capacity, and will drop right into the OEM pucks for an easy install/removal. B&W makes really solid stuff, and have been excellent all around which is why I'd go with them.
