Expert Reply:
The B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # BWRVK3400-5W weighs 276 lbs. To install it in your 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500 you will need the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Hitch item # BWGNRK1020. This hitch is custom fit and includes all hardware necessary to complete installation on your truck. It has a massive 30,000 lbs capacity.
I have linked an installation video below to show you how to get this system set up.
To make towing with a 5th wheel easier, I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector - 7' Long item # C58FV. This harness puts a 4-way and 7-way connector in the bed of your truck and allows you to keep the one on your bumper. This makes hooking up to your 5th wheel trailer easier and more convenient.
