Question:
I have a 2018 F250, with a BandW turnover ball hitch, and a Companion 5th wheel hitch. I am looking at a 2025 F250 that has pucks in the bed, and is also prepd for a gooseneck. What can I do to use my existing 5th wheel hitch in the pick configuration?

Hey Terry! You can use your existing Companion by swapping out the base so it fits the pucks in your 2025 F-250. We have the following available:
-Replacement Base for B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Super Duty - 20K # BWRVB3300
-Replacement Base for B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Super Duty - 25K # BWRVB3305
-Replacement Slider Base for B&W OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Ford Towing Prep Package - 20K # BWRVB3370
Once you install the new base I would sell the old one to recoup a good chunk of that cost. There are always people switching back and forth on these so it shouldn't be too hard to find someone that is interested.
Any big trips with your 5th wheel coming up this fall?
