How to Get Replacement Skid Plate for B&W 5th Wheel Hitch
Updated 08/07/2025 | Published 07/12/2025 >
Question:
Dou you guys have replacement kit for a BandW fifth wheel hitch skid plate. Mine has a lot of play in it and there is a ton of chucking. I’m hoping this kit could tighten it up a little. Model RVB3300. Maybe I should ask also about the chucking. Would it help changing out the springs and stuff? Thanks
