High Capacity Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2015 Chevy Silverado 3500 with Reese Elite Rails
Question:
I have a 2015 Silverado 3500hd, I currently have the reese elite 18000, I have the reese under bed puck mount, I want to purchase the reese m5 hitch. My question is will the m5 hitch mount on my under bed mount

Expert Reply:
The Reese M5 fifth wheel hitches like the part # RP30895 only fit the GM factory fifth wheel rail kits, since you have a Reese Elite fifth wheel rail kit you'd have to go with an M5 fifth wheel hitch if you are in need of a new hitch. We have the Elite part # RP30922 that has a towing capacity of 27,000lbs which would be a great solution if the reason you want a new hitch is because you need more towing capacity. This will drop right into the pucks of your Reese underbed puck system.
