Question:
Greetings, i currently have a Q20 Fifth wheel hitch with the OEM puc system for my truck that i just traded in. my new truck is a short bed. from what i can tell, i just need to change out the q20 head unit to the A25 slider from my current puc legs. and then get the puc adapter plate. but all the products listed include a new head unit. is there a way i can purchase only the components i need?
