Best Way Hitch Solution for Towing Fifth Wheel and Gooseneck with 2009 GMC Sierra 2500HD Short Bed
Question:
I have a 2009 Sierra 2500hd crew cab short box diesel. I’m looking at buying a gooseneck float trailer. But I’m looking for a rail set up so I can also get a 5th wheel hitch to tow my camper. What would you recommend for a bracket/rail kit, a gooseneck hitch that will fit the rails as well as a 5th wheel hitch that will give me a proper turning radius for a short box pickup. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks!

The best solution for having a way to tow a fifth wheel trailer and a gooseneck trailer with your 2009 GMC Sierra 2500HD short bed would be with the B and W Companion Slider hitch part # BWRVK3400 that fits in the rail kit part # BWGNRK1067 which doubles as a gooseneck hitch.
This gives you what many refer to as the best fifth wheel hitch and gooseneck setup that also gives you a cleaner truck bed when not towing as well.
