Recommended 5th Wheel Sliding Hitch Compatible With Nissan 5th Wheel Adapter For 2016 Titan XD

Question:

I have A 2016 Nissan Titan XD Diesel Nissan finally got their heavy duty Fifth Wheel Adapter to me. Now I am wondering if this hitch will work with Nissans adapter? I had the B+W Companion with my RAM 3500 and loved it! I guess I will be needing the slide that is why I am interested in this particular B+W Hitch. Thanks for your support

For your 2016 Nissan Titan XD Diesel, I haven't seen the 5th wheel adapter yet. That is a factory only option that I assume will give you standard rails so you can use the majority of 5th wheel hitches available.

Since you loved your B&W Companion, and this new truck has a shorter bed with a 6-1/2 foot length, I recommend the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Dual Jaw - 18,000 lbs # BWRVK3270. This will give you the clearance you need for turning and will give you a very similar feel to your Companion Hitch.

I recommend putting a 7-way trailer connector in the bed of your truck to have a more accessible connection for your trailer. For this, I recommend the Hopkins # 41157 wiring harness.
