A 7-way (female) vehicle socket like # PK12-707E has a single blade contact; these fit in between the dual contact surfaces in a (male) trailer plug like # 54006-059, # 277-000143 or # A10-7W10 and the connector (type BB) shown in your photo.
Some 7-way male plugs will use a single blade contact, such as the plug on Hopkins 7-way extension # HM20049. This item's female socket and male plug happen to both use the single contact. Both types are compatible with each other.

The Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle # F2703 are a higher quality system when compared to Air Lift. Firestone bags use a rolled crimp seal which keeps the bags securely anchored and does a better job when compared to the metal bands Air Lift uses.
These Firestone bags also have four layers of reinforced rubber compared to two layers on the Air Lift. Another nice part about the Firestone is that they do not require drilling for the installation,... view full answer...
Between the Air Lift AirCell Custom Helper Springs Kit # AL52215 and SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-114-54 you will definitely want the SumoSprings. The AirLifts are not a confirmed fit for your 2015 Ford F-350. They're made for Fords no newer than 2012.
The SumoSprings are a great product, and will work to level your truck under the weight of the kingpin. view full answer...
When comparing the B&W Companion To the Curt A 20, there are some basic differences that make both models attractive.
The B&W Companion # BWRVK3300 has a very sturdy base that can be easily disconnected from the hitch head and the pivot arms are easily adjustable and have not only height adjustment but can move either closer to cab or farther from cab. It weighs about 150 lbs in total. The negative is the lack of cool features like a coupler indicator and the standard B&W gray color.

I talked to some of our guys down in our installation bays and based on the feedback I received, I definitely recommend the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System # TFR350SDJ for your 2020 Ford F-350 Super Duty.
The TorkLift StableLoad # TLA7310S work by engaging your factory lower overload springs earlier than they would otherwise, which minimize sway and assist you when hauling heavy loads. However, disengaging this system requires you to get under the truck and use a rachet (not included)... view full answer...
The camera included with the Furrion RV Observation Camera System part # FOS43TASF is the same as the camera induced with the Furrion RV Observation Camera System part # FOS05TASF. The only difference is that part # FOS43TASF has a 4.3" monitor and part # FOS05TASF has a 5" monitor. They will both work on your 2018 Jayco Eagle HT 29.5BHOK. The 5" system will allow you to add up to 3 additional cameras.

Proportional brake controllers like the Prodigy P3 part # 90195 are by far the better choice over time delayed. Proportional controllers use internal sensors to determine how hard your trailer brakes should be applied based on how hard they sense you are applying the vehicles brakes. A time-delayed controller applies a set amount of braking force that ramps up over a set amount of time and then stays at that force till the brakes are released. If you think about how often you apply the... view full answer...
The Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F95FV are built with commercial grade components that allow for them to achieve the higher weight capacity(7,500lbs) through a higher air pressure capacity(150psi). The rubber and cord gives the bags additional strength. Higher strength steel is used on the brackets and mounting hardware as well to account for the additional capacity.
The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2600 are only rated for an air pressure... view full answer...
I like the Bulldog Hitch Receiver Lock part # BD580412 for a 2019 Ford F-350 because the dust cap is a bit more protective than most other options. view full answer...
From the sound of your question, I assume you meant the # PW3029C instead of "TC3029C." Also, it sounds like you have size 275/70-18 tires on your 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty (single rear wheel). Per the Ford user's manual, I recommend only using Class S approved accessories.
With that being said, if you want better traction and grip, I always recommend going with tire chains over cables. For this reason, I recommend the Titan Chain Cable Snow Tire Chains - Ladder Pattern - Steel Rollers... view full answer...
For your 2022 Ford F-350 long bed with the factory puck system, for a 17,000 lb trailer you are absolutely fine going with the 20,000 lb Companion:
- B&W Companion OEM 5th-Wheel Hitch for Ford Super Duty Prep Package - 20,000 lbs # BWRVK3300
Realistically, this will be the best option for almost all of the F-350's, as - with exception - they max out with a 5th wheel towing capacity of just below or just above 20,000 lbs. If your F-350 is a diesel with dual rear wheels then the capacity... view full answer...
The cushioned 5th wheel replacement pin boxes we offer, including Reese and TrailAir items, are all shown on the linked page. Like you, I take note of the major difference in the warranty coverage between these brands and if it were me that difference would matter. I can also suggest that for your assessment of these products you check out the reviews posted by our customers that have purchased these products from us. On each item's page you can click on the review link next to each photo.... view full answer...
The Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel Pin Box - Lippert 1621 and 1621 HD - 18,000 lbs - 3.5K TW # 325-GH-8040 weighs 125-lbs. However, after speaking with the tech and warranty department over at Lippert, the Gen-Y pin boxes are not "endorsed" for use on a Lippert chassis. I don't recommend this for a new coach with the warranty still in tact for that reason.
If you wanted to replace your Lippert 1621 pin box with a pin box that would give you an upgraded ride quality then I recommend... view full answer...
You have already pointed out the differences with the number of bearings and the other difference is capacity rating. The CargoGlide 1500XL Sliding Tray for Trucks - Heavy Duty - 1,500 lbs - Steel Frame - 8" Rail # CG1500XL-9548 has 36 bearings with different ratings for the 4 types used and a total load capacity of 57,158 lbs with 1,500 lb real capacity on the frame..

The Curt A25 # C16036 is less sturdy than the other hitches you mentioned, but many people really like them. My recommendation between the Reese M5 Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30922 and the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Ford Super Duty Prep Package # BWRVK3305 is the latter.
The B&W Companion Hitch has the more stable base and the dual jaw design is better at resisting the jarring and chucking you mentioned. The jaws are 1 inch thick and provide better security and less... view full answer...
Great question. The difference between the two would be the application.
Both parts are a fit for a 2021 Ford F-350, but the Air Lift # AL35FJ Load Lifter 5000 is a fit for single rear wheel trucks (SRW) and the # AL26KV is a fit for Dual Rear Wheel (DRW) trucks.
You might also be interested in an on-board compressor system like part # AL25856. A compressor system would allow you to add or remove pressure from the system as the load and the road surface dictates, all from the comfort... view full answer...
I highly recommend going with the B&W Companion Slider # BWRVK3400 over using the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Roller # 16516 with the Curt X5 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter # 16310.
For starters, by using the Companion you will only have one attachment point; where the B&W Companion connects to the B&W Underbed Gooseneck Hitch # BWGNRK1111. This will give you a much more secure connection over using a system that will require more points of attachment. By using the Curt system... view full answer...
Both the Curt Q-24 5th Wheel Hitch w/Slider for Ford Prep, # C16545-16020, and the Curt Q20 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider for Ford Prep, # C16530-16020, will work well on your 2016 Ford -F350 Super Duty with the Ford prep package.
Both hitches will fit the Ford puck system and will provide 12 inches of slider travel front to back on your 6-3/4 foot bed.
The only real physical differences between the two hitches are weight capacity and actual weight of the hitch. The Q24 has a 24,000 lbs... view full answer...
For your 2019 Ford F-350 with the hitch package, the Ford OEM 18K is basically the same hitch as the Reese Elite Series Pre-Assembled 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Wiring Harness - Single Jaw - 18,000 lbs # RP30142 which is a great quality hitch.
When directly compared to the B&W Companion OEM 5th-Wheel Hitch for Ford Super Duty Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs # BWRVK3300, the Reese hitch will be about 15 lbs lighter due to a slightly lighter gauge metal. The Companion is my favorite... view full answer...
Though the 20k B&W Companion # BWRVK3300 will snap right into the pucks in the bed of your 2022 Ford F-350 Super Duty, it will indeed limit you a little. Since your new truck has such a high towing capacity, I do recommend going with the 25k Companion # BWRVK3305. Yes, this will be more expensive. However, if you ever upgrade to a larger camper that exceeds the 20k capacity of the # BWRVK3300, you will need to replace the hitch. If you already have the higher capacity # BWRVK3305, you are... view full answer...
