Expert Reply:
I believe the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Ram Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 25,000 lbs # BWRVK3600 is a superior hitch to the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ram Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 25,000 lbs # C16049. The Curt hitch comes apart in different places and is held together with bolts and nuts. The Companion hitch is a sturdy welded base without any bolts and nuts.
Both hitches allow you to remove the head from the base for easy loading and unloading. Il like the look of the Curt hitch better, but the functions of the B&W hitch give you a more sturdy hitch.
I've attached a couple videos to assist. You may also want to consider the wiring harness # 50-97-410 that will give you a second functioning 7-way trailer connection in the bed of your truck for easy access.
