Recommended Autosliding Hitch For 2014 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD With 6-1/2 Foot Bed
Question:
Do you carry an auto 5th wheel slider hitch that will fit my 2014 silverado 2500 hd ? I have a b and w gooseneck already installed and would like to have the least hassle and keep the expense down it possible.

For your 2014 Chevy Silverado 2500, we do not have an autosliding hitch option compatible with your B&W gooseneck # BWGNRK1012. For a manual slider that is compatible with your system, I recommend the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs # BWRVK3400-5W. This is a very nice hitch, but it is not an autoslider.
For an autosliding hitch, you will need to remove your B&W underbed gooseneck hitch because it mounts in the same locations and the rails for the autoslider and the two are not compatible. You will have a couple of different rail options. You can use either the above bed or the underbed rails and then the compatible hitch.
For above bed rails, I recommend the Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails and Custom Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Hitches # DM8552011-71 and the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Above Bed - 18,000 lbs # DM8550034 or the 21,000 lb capacity # DM8550035.
