Replacement Base for Older B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitch That Used U-Bolts
Question:
Im in need of replacement of the large u-bolts that attach the companion 5th wheel hitch to the post. Locking nuts threads have become guauded and wont move either way. Do you have these or where can I get them?

Expert Reply:
The model of B&W Companion 5th wheel hitch you have is the older one that used U-bolts. And while I'm sure it has aged gracefully for the most part, if you have U-bolts that need replacement the only option is to convert your hitch to the new style with the Replacement Base for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVB3500.
The reason for that is the U-bolts you are looking for are no longer available. While that is undoubtedly not the news you wanted to hear, a new base is going to allow you to continue to tow safely and a new base is a much more economical option than having to replace your hitch entirely.
I have added a link to a video review of the base for you to check out as well.
