Updated 03/26/2026 | Published 03/22/2026 >
Question:
Hello, can you tell what the height of the RVK3050 hitch is from the base? I see one comment that said 10.5 inches but the photo make it look much higher than that. Thanks

Hey Eugene, the fixed height of the B&W Companion Flatbed Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # BWRVK3050 that you referenced is 10-1/2 inches. This will be the height from the top of the flatbed of the truck to the top of the hitch head.
Do you have a flat bed truck? Or are you looking for a standard height hitch which would be taller?

10.5 , I’ve owned a lot of hitches this is by far the best maybe because I have a flatbed lol but I don’t have to lift it with a tractor like my past ones. I can have in in or out in 5 minutes and it’s rock solid!

Yes I would buy it again. Measure once or twice and then a couple more times ensuring what you are towing will tow LEVEL. Including any air bags you may have on the suspension. Good unit as is everything I've bought from B&W. Works as advertised
