Hi Om,

Congrats on the new truck! What is your favorite new feature?

We always aim to carry the best brands, and while Curt is definitely a solid choice, B&W is the cream of the crop! Their products are not only top-tier in quality, but they’re also made right here in the USA, which we love to support.

For your 2025 GMC Sierra 3500, the correct B&W kit is #BWGNRK1020. It looks like it wasn’t showing up in our fit guide because we’re currently waiting on inventory. Good news though, it looks like we’ll be able to get it in by mid-May.

Not sure what your time frame looks like, but if you’re able to wait, I’d definitely recommend holding out for it!

I ordered the last week Curt 60642 after installing it was not happy of the design at all I’m thinking of replacing it with B&W 1020. My question to you, will the center hole be the same?, If not, by how much off?

@Om For the B&W # BWGNRK1020 the hole is 45 5/16 from the rear of the truck bed, and the Curt is listed 45-46" from the rear. So it should be about the same.
