Hello Scott, thanks for reaching out.

The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3775 weighs 250 lbs altogether. The head unit can easily be separated from the base, and the head weighs about 70 lbs by itself.

Leave a reply below with any other questions or comments and I will get back to you.

Hey Jerry, GM moved the placement of their puck systems starting with 2020 models so you are correct that the pucks would have the hitch not sit directly over the axle. GM did the math and made sure that this placement wouldn't adversely affect…
