Hi Dwayne!

The B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Dual Jaw - 18,000 lbs # BWRVK3270 is just the hitch so you will need to purchase rails and brackets separately. For your 2023 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD LT Crew Cab, you will want the following parts for that:

B&W Custom Mounting Brackets for Patriot 5th Wheel Above Bed Base Rails # BWRVR2505
B&W Universal Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches - 10 Bolt # BWRVR3210

We do have other brands for rails and brackets (Curt, Demco, and PullRite), but the B&W option is by far the least expensive way to go. They are still American made, custom fit to your truck, and come with lifetime warranties, so it's not like you're getting any kind of downgrade going with the least expensive option.

What kind of 5th wheel are you going to be towing?

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…

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…

Yes, the puck system used on the 2016-2019 Chevy/GMC trucks is different than the pucks used on the 2020 and newer trucks. So you would need a 5th wheel like the B&W Companion #BWRVK3710 for your 2020 GMC Sierra 3500 with an 8' Bed. If you…

Hi Glen, It will depend on what the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) is of your trailer to determine which B&W 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter will work best for you. Fifth wheels and gooseneck trailers go off of pin weight instead of tongue…
