Expert Answers about GMC Sierra 3500


  • I Need a 24K 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2015 GMC Sierra 3500 with a B&W Gooseneck Hitch
  • I may have a solution that will work for you, but there are no fifth wheel hitches compatible with the B&W gooseneck hitch with a weight capacity over 20,000 lbs. If you did not want to completely remove the gooseneck hitch, then you could use a fifth-wheel-to-gooseneck coupler adapter like the Ranch Hitch Adapter, # AM3100. This adapter bolts to the underside of the pin box on your trailer at the king pin and hooks directly to the gooseneck ball. We actually use an adapter similar to this...

  • Which Curt Legs are Compatible with the OEM Pucks on a 2020 GMC Sierra 3500 and Curt Q25 Head
  • The correct replacement legs for the OEM Pucks on a 2020 GMC Sierra 3500 and a Curt Q25 hitch can be found with part # CU53FR. These legs will attach to your existing head and allow you to install your hitch in the factory pucks. Keep in mind that since your 2020 Sierra 3500 is a short bed truck, if you don't already have one, you may need either a sliding hitch or Sidewinder style pin box to avoid making making contact with the truck's cab during turns. If you need a slider base, you'll...

  • Recommended Air Lift Air Bag and Compressor System for a 2015 GMC Sierra 3500 4WD Dually
  • I recommend using the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Springs w/ Internal Bumpers # AL88338, which are compatible with your in-bed 5th wheel hitch, dual rear wheels, and require no drilling for installation. The AirLift system will do a great job of providing added support on the rear axle when you're towing your 5th wheel, that will ultimately help improve steering and braking performance, as well as fight body roll and sway. If you don't already have an on-board compressor system,...

  • Does 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 Denali Come with Factory Rails for 5th Wheel Hitch
  • Great question! You can actually purchase the 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 Denali with a factory puck package (that sits flush with your truck bed) or there are aftermarket options for using a 5th wheel hitch as well (which are offered with rails above or below the bed). If you decide to go aftermarket then I do recommend getting rails that sit below the bed because then when you aren't towing your 5th wheel hitch you have full access to your truck bed. Just for reference, B&W offers 5th wheel...

  • Comparing The Firestone And Air Lift 7500 Air Bag Systems For A 2023 GMC Sierra 3500
  • Out of the two air bag kits that you mentioned I recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2709 over the Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL Air Helper Springs # AL57541 due to the construction of the air bags. The construction of the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2709 air bags and mounting plates are stronger, which will make them more durable and last longer. The Firestone kit uses a crimp-rolled seal to connect the bag...

  • How To Measure To Determine Correct Replacement Pin Box For A 2019 Grand Solitude
  • To replace your pin box on your 2019 Grand Solitude I will first need to know the brand and the part number that appear on the safety sticker that is usually on the left side of the pin box. If the sticker is gone or to hard to read I will link an article below showing you how to measure your existing pin box to determine which number that you currently have. The Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box # GY63FR will fit a Fabex/M&M 665. Another example would be the Gen-Y...

  • Recommended Lube Plate for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitch
  • We're glad you're happy with your B&W Companion 5th wheel hitch. You made a great choice! B&W recommends a 10 inch lube plate. I'd go with # RP83002 which would prevent the skid plate of your hitch from getting all scratched up, and would eliminate the need to grease the skid plate which typically gets grease all over the place.

  • 5th Wheel Hitch for Sidewinder Pin Box On Jayco Eagle 5th Wheel Trailer
  • You may be able to purchase the trailer with a Revolution king pin since you're getting it brand new.

  • Converting a Curt Q20 5TH Wheel Hitch To Fit a 2022 GMC Sierra 3500 Long Bed With Factory Prep/Puck
  • To mount a Curt Q20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16130 into your 2022 GMC Sierra 3500 there are a couple options. First and easiest is to use the Adapter Rails # C88KR that will drop into your factory prep/puck system and give you the connection points for your Curt Q20 hitch to drop into. This will add an additional 2-1/2" of height to your hitch height. So rather than 13" to 17" of height you will have 15-1/2" to 19-1//2" of height from your bed. The second option will require you to...
