B&W makes several versions of their Companion 5th wheel hitch. Their Companion fixed-style hitch # BWRVK3500-5W is rated for 20K. This hitch fits long beds. For short beds they offer a sliding version # BWRVK3400-5W which is rated for 18K.
You can use Replacement Base # BWRVB3500 or slider base # BWRVB3405.
