Can B&W Companion Hitch for Ford Trucks be Used with Reese Revolution Pin Box
Question:
I bought # BWRVK3300 hitch for my 2012 Ford F350. I have a 5th wheel with the reese revolution pin box. I have read that if you buy the wedge you guys offer then you can use this combination with no problems. However my BandW hitch has a very large sticker saying do not use the reese revolution feature with the hitch. I cant find anything on BandW s website that states that I can use this combination. Please let me know if I am missing something.

We have confirmed with B and W that the Companion hitch for Ford fifth wheel rail kits part # BWRVK3300 is compatible Reese Revolution/Sidewinder pin boxes as long as you use the correct wedge part # SWW-06 that you mentioned. The reason you see that sticker on the head of the hitch is the head of the hitch is the same one that gets used on all of the Companion hitches and the ones that use the gooseneck shank to attach to the truck cannot be used with a Revolution so that's where that warning comes from.
