Will The Firestone Ride-Rite F2613 Kit Work With The B&W 5th Wheel Hitch BW27XR On A 2019 Chevy 2500  

Updated 08/03/2026 | Published 07/28/2026

Question:

I have a 2019 Silverado 2500HD with 6-1/2’ bed. I am looking at a BW27XR hitch kit and F2613 air bag kit. Are these two kits compatible with each other on my truck?

Hey Floyd, thanks for reaching out. Sounds like you are on the right track here. The B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # BW27XR is exactly what you'll need for your 2019 Chevy 2500 short bed provided it has the factory puck system in the bed.

The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2613 are a great choice to go with that. The use brackets that are specifically designed to work with in bed 5th wheel or gooseneck hitch brackets. That includes the factory puck system brackets, and aftermarket hitch brackets. The air bags will do a great job leveling out your ride and adding stability when you are hauling.

What kind of trailer will you be hauling? Any cool trips planned?

My truck does not have the factory puck mounts. Does this kit not include the rails and frame mounts for my truck? It has RVR2506 and RVR3210 with RVK3270 right above the installation instructions. If it does not include the rail mounts and brackets, what is the difference between RVK3270 & BW27XR?

@FloydF Oh my mistake I got the part numbers mixed up. Yes the # BW27XR is the patriot hitch and it does come with the rail kit and install hardware for your 2019 Chevy 2500. The included brackets will not interfere with the air bag kit at all. Sorry for any confusion.

@JesseM Nice! Thanks for the help. As far as your questions, I will be towing a open range roamer 5th wheel across the country. We are selling our home, and hitting the road!
