  • Switching B&W Companion Hitch from 2017 Chevy Silverado 3500 to 2020 Chevy Silverado 3500
  • 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.

  • How Does Demco Hijacker AutoSlide Fifth Wheel Hitch Fit OEM Rail Kit of 2021 Chevy Silverado 3500
  • 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.

  • Can I Use the B&W Companion 5th-Wheel Hitch on My 2018 Chevy Silverado 3500?
  • 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...

  • Recommend Hitch for a 48 Extension on a 2023 Chevy Silverado 3500
  • To use the TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension 48" Long item # TLE1548 with your 2023 Chevy Silverado 3500 you are going to want the TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch Receiver item # TL74FR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Silverado with included hardware. I really like this hitch because it has both a 2" and 2-1/2" receiver and a large towing capacity of 20,000 lbs without a weight distribution system. The stacked receivers give you multiple options for ball mounts and...

  • Will The B&W Companion Slider From 2020 Silverado 1500 Also Fit 2024 3500 8' Bed Puck System?
  • Since your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 does not have the option for a factory prep/puck system you will be better switching to the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3715. This will drop into the factory pucks on your 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 long bed dually. The Base # BWRVB3405 you have on your B&W Companion Slider # BWRVK3400 is very large and bulky and if you were to transfer your current Head # BWRVC3006 to either the 20K Base # BWRVB3710 or 25K Base # BWRVB3715 you...

  • Recommended Air Compressor System With Heavy Duty Compressor With 30 Cycle Duty For Air Bags
  • The Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle part # AL57538 on your 2018 Chevy Silverado 3500 High Country was a nice choice! Air compressors systems are pretty much universal so you can use the Firestone Compressor system with the 7500 air bags without a problem. I recommend to use the Air Command Compressor System w/ Wireless Remote and Heavy Duty Compressor - Dual Path part # F96VV which is a wireless system with a remote so you can inflate/deflate the bags from inside...

  • Fifth Wheel Rails and Hitch That Looks OEM On 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500HD
  • The aftermarket fifth wheel bed rail system that is the most like the factory puck system is the below bed Reese installation rails. The rails are designed for use with Reese Elite Series and Signature Series 5th wheel hitches. The 4 mounting holes of the rails sit flush with the bed much like the OEM puck system. If you have a 6-1/2 ft bed I recommend installation rails part # RP30868 and Reese Elite Series Pre-Assembled hitch With Slider part # BWRVK3370. If you have the 8 ft bed,...

  • Recommendation for 5th Wheel Custom Bracket Fit for a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 8 foot bed
  • I called my contact at Reese and they confirmed that the Reese Quick-Install Bracket Kit # RP50066 is a fit for the 2016 Chevy Silverado 3500 with an 8 foot bed. We strongly recommend using the same rails and brackets so I would go with # RP50066-58 which includes the base rails. If you were planning on using older rails we cannot guarantee that they will be a fit.

  • Correct Reese Goose Box for a 2018 Grand Design Momentum 398M
  • The Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter part # RP85FR should be correct for a 2018 Grand Design Momentum 398M but I do recommend you confirm you have the Lippert 1621HD bolt pattern by looking for this number on the pin box itself.

  • Will Reese Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # RP56001-53 Work with Curt Q24 Hitch # C16245
  • The Reese Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # RP56001-53 is a custom-fit kit for your 2015 Chevy Silverado 3500 that requires no drilling into the truck's frame (only the truck bed) since it uses existing holes for its outboard brackets. Outboard brackets make installation easier by giving you better access for your tools; the brackets themselves and the frame mounting points are essentially the same either way so there is no loss of strength. These industry-standard rails are fully compatible...

  • Does Installing a Performance Tuner Void The Vehicle Warranty On a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 3500?
  • The Superchips Flashpaq F5 Performance Tuner # SU2845 will not void the warranty. I do see you entered your vehicle as a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 which you will need the Tuner # SU2847 for as the other is not compatible with your specific gas engine. If you have the Duramax Diesel you will want to go with the Edge Pulsar V3 L5P Inline Tuner # EP34KR. You do not have to make any intake or exhaust modifications to use these different tuners.

  • In order to use the B&W Companion Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter part # BWRVK3500 or part # BWRVK3400 on a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 you have a few options depending on if the truck has the factory prep package. The factory prep package is composed of a singular center hole for the gooseneck hitch ball and then four pucks on the outer perimeter. If this is what you have then what you need is the Replacement Base for B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # BWRVB3710...

  • Can The Base Of A B&W Companion Hitch For Ford OEM Be Replaced With A Chevy OEM Base
  • Yes, you can definitely replace just the base of your B&W Companion hitch with a slider designed to fit your new 2023 Chevy Silverado 3500's puck system. You'll need the Replacement Slider Base # BWRVB3775 and can simply pull the two pins that connect the hitch head # BWRVC3006 to the pivot arms and swap it over to the new base. Removing the head during installation/removal from your truck will also help lighten the load. The slider base is around 181lbs so you'll definitely want to have...

  • Back Up Camera For 2020 Chevy Silverado 3500
  • I have a possible solution for you, however, the backup camera you were looking at is for Chevy Silverado or GMC Sierra 2016-2018 models only and it will not fit your 2020 model. Your best option for a camera that mounts on the back of your vehicle is the Rear View Safety G-Series Backup Camera System # RVS-776718-DOS. This comes with an auto-dimming mirror that will be used as a monitor. The camera can be mounted pretty much anywhere on the back of your vehicle; most people install it...
