The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w Slider for Ford Towing Prep Package, # BWRVK3370 is the needed hitch for your 2022 Ford F-250 Super Duty with 6-3/4 Foot Bed and the OEM Prep Pkg.

The cushioned bushings, and pivoting head combined provide you the most comfortable and quiet towing experience possible. It does have a removable head, which weighs 75 lbs while the base weighs 192 lbs, so you can take apart the head, or you can remove it from your truck with a hoist and the B&W 5th Wheel Lifting Device for Companion and Patriot Hitches # BWRVXA3130. In addition, many that use these hitches note the superior powder coating relative to competitors brands, and appreciate that not only are they Made in USA, but all raw materials are sourced from here as well.
