Used to to wire in my FourWheel Hawk camper on my new 2024 Chevrolet 2500hd, very easy to use and eliminates running wire from camper to truck battery. Since I converted my 12 volt batteries in camper to lithium, I do not tie them into truck battery.

The wiring harness was super easy to install. The instructions are easy to understand. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to add a 7-Pole trailer connection to the inside of their bed.

Great Product!! Dealer wanted $200 to $300....Watched the accompanying video, and Installation was pretty straight forward on My 2022 GMC 2500HD. The only pain was getting at the Factory connection clip on the original plug... I chock that up to being my own fault for not dropping the spare tire down for ease of access...



by:

Ordered this for a 2024 Silverado 2500HD even though it wasnt certain that it would be compatible. Once i figured the connections out the actual install took maybe 15 minutes! Ill add i coated all the connection pins with dielectric grease before reconnection. Worked perfectly.



by:

I liked this kit. It looks and feels like high quality. Installation was easy and it took very little time to get clean results. Etrailer was great to work with. I talked with Kim on the phone due to some questions that I had after I received my order. The call was professional and helpful. I would order from etrailer again.

I was mad when I saw this, paid $200 to have installed in my previous truck’s bed. When I watched the video and saw it was plug and play I ordered and installed my self in less than 30 minutes. Shipping took a week but I won’t need it until the 3rd week of August when I head out with the fifth wheel. Product came as advertised with every thing needed to install. It looks factory (see pic). I am very happy with how it came out and the installation video was excellent.

This was probably one of the fastest items to install on everything I have added to my 21 GMC Sierra 2500HD, Denali Duramax. The right angle plugs make it simply slip in, plug and play.



by:
2020 GMC Sierra 2500

Exactly what needed and ordered. Fast shipping. Thank you!

Arrived the next day and I only selected basic shipping. This is the only company that seems to have what they sell in stock and ships quickly. Also if you have a problem they bend over backwards to make it right.

2023 GMC Sierra 3500

Worked with Neil on a GMC 2024. U known if adaptable with new GMC. Built my confidence as we spoke. Anyway, it did fit and works great with camper and boat. Made my own face plate to use the dummy hole on the driver's side. Extended my RV cord to fit. No holes drilled in bed. Would of worked better with the GMC factory fit plug but not the case. Excellent. It does work with the 2024 GMC.



by:
2021 GMC Sierra 2500

I love the setup but I have a concern that the connection in the bed once installed has a slight right angle into a sharp bed seam. It is at the spot right at the connector with no cable armor. I am concerned this will wear and cause a short down the line.

  • Best 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500 Gooseneck Hitch Recommendation
    I highly recommend the B&W Gooseneck hitch for your 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500, which is the following part: - B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1020 This is a custom fit hitch that allows you to store the hitch ball upside down when not in use, giving you a completely clear bed. The receiver is also squared which gives you a way to use one of the Companion 5th wheel hitches if the need ever arises. One other thing I recommend installing on your truck is an in-bed...

  • Recommended Curt 5th Wheel Hitch For 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 For 20,000 lb Trailer
    Since your Alliance trailer has a 20,000 lb GVWR, you'll need a hitch with a capacity that exceeds that, and the best option from Curt is the A-Series. You didn't mention if your 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 had the OEM puck system, or if you already have bed rails installed, or if it was a short bed or long bed, so I'll list out every potential option: - Short Bed WITHOUT OEM Puck System: Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # C16429-204 & Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S25 Slider...

  • Will the B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch BWGNRK1019 fit the 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500?
    Yes, it will! The B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch item # BWGNRK1019 has been confirmed to fit all models and bed lengths of the 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 including the LTZ. I have linked an installation video below. To make towing with a 5th wheel easier, I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness item # C53CR. This harness puts a 7-way connector in the bed of your truck and allows you to keep the one on your bumper. This makes hooking up...

  • 5th Wheel Base Rails & Custom Brackets For 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500HD
    Hi there Brad; good questions and let's start with the 5th wheel base rails, as you will need new ones to go with a custom, no-drill install kit for your 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500. The reason is you can't mix and match base rails and brackets, and I believe by "Pro" you are referring to old Pro Series rails, which there aren't brackets for. So for new rails and brackets the best option is the following: - B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # BWRVK2505 I like the B&W # BWRVK2505...

  • B&W Gooseneck Hitch Fit for a 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500
    The correct B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch for your 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 is the part # BWGNRK1020. This fits both the short and long bed pickups, is made here in the USA, and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. We've had the opportunity to install this on a 2022 Chevy 3500 which I'm attaching the video for you to check out. I also recommend picking up the Curt Wiring # C53CR which tees into the back of your 7-Way connector and gives you a 7-Way in your truck bed so it's easier...

  • 5th Wheel Hitch Recommendation For 2021 Chevy Silverado 2500 With 6-1/2 Foot Standard Bed
    We can get your 2021 Chevy Silverado 2500 with a 6-1/2 foot standard bed set up with a 5th wheel hitch, and for that size bed what you will need is a sliding hitch. The reason for that is this will allow the clearance needed to make tighter turns without the trailer hitting your Chevy's cab. The hitch I highly recommend for your truck is from B&W: - B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with Slider # BWRVK3270 The reason I like the Patriot # BWRVK3270 so much because of the value the hitch...

  • Is Sliding B&W Companion Needed on 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 w/ 6 Foot 9 Inch Bed w/o Puck System
    So the answer to your question is yes, for your 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 with the 6 foot 9 inch standard bed, you will need the B&W Companion Slider # BWRVK3400-5W instead of the fixed B&W Companion # BWRVK3500-5W to safely execute a sharp turn without hitting the cab. The way I determined this is with the following clearance formula: (A + B) - C = Clearance (At least 4 inches of clearance is recommended to safely execute a 90 degree turn) A = Distance from center of fifth wheel hitch...

Curt's wiring harnesses are far more reliable. GM uses Curt products for their towing equipment so if they have one in stock it is most likely the exact same part.

    Hey Mike; thanks for the question and the part number you asked about is not a fit for the 2020 GMC Sierra 2500. There isn't an Elite Series for your truck but there is a very nice alternative for an underbed gooseneck that does fit, the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit # BWGNRK1020.

    If you don't have the factory puck system in your 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500 with a 6-3/4 foot bed, you can still use the sliding Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C55DR, but you will need to mount it on above-bed rails. For that you'll need the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC Truck # C16429-204.

This is especially true since you mentioned the switchback roads and tight turns.
