Expert Reply:
The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3700 that you referenced, which is confirmed to fit your 2018 Chevy Silverado 3500 with the factory puck system, is indeed compatible with the Reese 5th Airborne Sidewinder Pin Boxes. Unlike the standard Companion models that use a single center attachment point, the OEM versions like this one use 4 attachment points, which allows it to be used with the Sidewinder pin boxes.
You will just need to add the Reese Custom Wedge # SWW-06, which is custom designed for this hitch and will work with the 5th Airborne Sidewinder on your trailer.
