Yes, you are correct! Assuming you already have the B&W Companion 5th Wheel hitch # BWRVK3700 (20k lbs) or #BWRVK3705 (25k lbs), the Replacement Base for B&W Companion Hitch # BWRVB3710 will work with your 2020 Chevy Silverado 3500 with the factory 5th Wheel towing prep package. view full answer...
The highest rated fifth wheel hitch available for a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 without prep package is the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16180 which is rated for 25,000 lbs. In order to install the Curt A25 you will need to use the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit part # C16429-204. The Curt A25 is a great setup, one of my favorites actually due to the secure interlocking dual jaw design which limits movement.
Unfortunately, you will be stuck with rails in the truck... view full answer...
The best 5th wheel hitch option for a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 without the factory prep package is without a doubt the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # BWRVK3400-5W which uses the Custom Underbed Installation Kit for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches part # BWGNRK1020-5W.
The B&W Underbed Installation Kit provides you with some really great features which includes an empty truck bed with the hitch removed, drill-free installation in regards to the frame, and doubles... view full answer...
The rails of the Bak Revolvers like the part # BAK32VR would protrude about 3 inches on either side of the bed rail. So they take up a total of 6 inches of bed space. view full answer...
That we are aware of we do not know if Demco will make a set of plates for the GM rail kit. They didn't make a set for the older rail GM rail kits so I wouldn't hold my breath.
If you use the # DM6333 with the Hijacker part # DM8550035 the king pin of the trailer you tow will be right above the center of the rear axle. I don't have the exact dimension but you can use that info to measure your truck bed. view full answer...
Since your trailer has the max turn radius front cap the really great news is that you can use a short bed truck to tow it with a fixed hitch and not have to use a slider.
The B and W Companion hitch part # BWRVK3715 is a really great option for the OEM rail kit of your 2021 Chevy Silverado 3500 short bed. Many consider it to be the best hitch around to how easy it is to use and how quiet it is when towing. view full answer...
You will want The HydraStar Control Adapter Module # HBA-CAM, to use your Hydrastar # HBA-16 unit with the factory integrated brake controller on your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 3500.
The factory brake controllers on 2007 and up GM trucks are not directly compatible with electric-over-hydraulic braking systems, and will require a separate adapter like the # HBA-CAM to work properly.

I looked up the GVWR of your Open Range 3X427BHS and it can weigh up to 16,300 lbs and the trailer has a tandem axle which means 4 tires to split that weight. This means you'll need a minimum of 4,075 lb capacity per tire. recommend the Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range G Item # TTWPRG235R16 has a capacity of 4,400 max load at 110 psi. This will fit well, have enough capacity, has a great speed rating of 81 mph. Even though it is not made in the USA, it is a very durable... view full answer...
The main reason for porpoising when towing a fifth wheel trailer is too low of pin weight in the trailer. If there's a way you could increase your pin weight by moving the weight in the trailer forward you should see the porpoising decrease. You should also check to make sure your trailer is setting as level as possible. view full answer...
Chevy didn't make an OEM fifth wheel rail kit for their trucks in 2014 so if you have what looks like a puck rail system it's most likely that you have a set of Reese Elite rails like the part # RP30868 installed. Which then you'd just need the Reese Elite Slider hitch part # RP30144 which will fit the pucks directly and give you a slider hitch that will also allow you the needed turning clearance.
I attached a picture of what the puck system should look like if you had the Elite rails.... view full answer...
The part numbers # BWGNRK1020 and # BWGNRK1020-5W are the exact same Turnoverball gooseneck hitch. We have two part numbers for it though as it shows up in two parts of vehicle fitguides as it works as a gooseneck hitch by itself or as the base rails for a Companion fifth wheel hitch.
Our pricing sometimes fluctuates based on how certain part numbers are selling. Best solution I can recommend is go with the one that costs less! view full answer...
We do have a nice selection of 5th wheel hitches that are designed to drop right into the factory pucks on your 2020 Chevy Silverado 3500 but I specifically recommend the Curt A30 # C16070 that provides the highest towing capacity available at 30,000 pounds and features a unique spherical axial bearing that allows for easy pivot of the hitch head for smooth and quiet travel.
Something else you won't find on any other brand hitch is the 3-point indicator system that quickly lets you know... view full answer...
The Cargo Control Cargo Bar with Ratchet # 08908 is 44" - 74" as the description states so it will fit your pickup! I confirmed this with Erickson. view full answer...
Installing the BRAKE-EVN brake controller # TK63VR on your 2015 Chevy Silverado 3500 with factory integrated controller will actually be very simple and does not require you to disable the integrated controller you have now.
What you will do is use harness # 3016 which plugs into a port on the truck already. But you will need to remove the blue wire from the end that plugs into the truck. You will then take a length of wire, # 10-1-1, and connect it to the blue wire you removed from the... view full answer...
Yes, the Demco OEM rail kit adapter part # DM6333 that fits your 2020 Chevy Silverado 3500 short bed with the OEM rail kit is compatible with Curt slider hitches. For that I recommend the A16 slider part # C16521 as it has a recently redesigned/improved jaw design that holds the king pin of the trailer very tightly for a smooth ride quality. view full answer...
There isn't a tonneau cover out there that is totally water tight, but the BAKFlip F1 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK72203 that you referenced has rubber seals where all of the moving parts are which help to keep the water out and also has a drain system that works to direct any water that gets past the seals to outside of the truck bed. This cover is one of the best options for keeping water out of the truck bed so you will be happy with that aspect of it. view full answer...
While there are ways to mount standard 5th wheel hitchers to a 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 with the factory prep package, unfortunately the B&W Patriot # BWRVK3270 is the one hitch that cannot be used with an adapter because the bracing required for the puck locations interferes with the Patriot.
What that means is that you will need a new 5th wheel hitch in order to tow with your truck, and to offset the cost, you should be able to get a very good price on the Patriot because it is such... view full answer...
Yes, we do have a set of industry standard rails available for your 2023 Chevy Silverado 2500. They are the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC Truck item # C16429-204. With these rails you will be able to use your B&W Patriot 5th wheel hitch item # BWRVK3255 in your 2023 Silverado.

Typically, 2018 Chevy 3500s come with OEM prep. However, to make sure, there are a few ways to determine whether you have the OEM prep system. The first way is to remove the goose hitch and look for bolt entry points in your truck's bed. This is a dead giveaway. On the video I attached to this answer, it shows the bolt pattern of OEM prep at timestamp 5:22.
Also, the existence of a 5th-wheel trailer wiring opening on the inside of the bed is also an indicator. If you determine that you... view full answer...
Yes, I just got off the phone with my rep from Air Lift, there is a kit that has been confirmed to fit your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 with Dual Rear Wheels. It is the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs item # AL57341. These have a 5,000-lb weight capacity. The air bags reduce the strain on your rear suspension, increase safety, and compensate for uneven loads. They level your truck from front to back and adjust independently for side-to-side leveling of off-center loads. They... view full answer...
