If you are looking for the best fifth wheel hitch for your 2019 Ford F-450, look no further than the B&W Companion, which will fit directly in your F-450's factory pucks and is available with either a 20,000 lb towing capacity at part # BWRVK3300 or a 25,000 lb towing capacity at part # BWRVK3305.
The Companion is considered by many to be the highest-quality fifth wheel hitch available. With about 500 reviews to date from our customers who have purchased it, this hitch has received a nearly unanimous 5-star rating. One of the reasons for that is the jaw system on the Companion; its dual jaws are a full 1" thick to provide complete contact with your king pin so you can have faith that your connection is absolutely secure. I've added a picture of the jaws so you can see for yourself how impressive they are.
The Companion is also going to give you a much quieter ride with less rattling than other fifth wheel hitches due to that secure connection and its polyurethane bushings which provide cushioning to minimize noise. This hitch also has a pivoting head to make hooking up easier, a cam-action latch to deter binding, offers three different height settings to ensure you are level with your fifth wheel. Additionally, both the 20,000 lb capacity # BWRVK3300 and 25,000 lb capacity # BWRVK3305 are made in the USA.
I have added links to a pair of video reviews on the Companion for you to take a look at as well.
