Will OEM Air Bags for a 2017 Chevy Silverado Work W/ B&W 5th Wheel Rails
Published 10/08/2024 >
Question:
I have air bags installed on my truck, which have u-bolts in the same area as the hitch bracket that I see is this an issue

Expert Reply:
Eric you are correct, that is indeed an issue. To get the rail kit # BWRVK2506 to also work with your factory air bags, you would need to drill into both your truck and the rail kit, which would void any warranty you get with the rail kit.

What about the B&W universal rail kit RVR3200 would this work, don’t want to change out air bags
