Is Reese M5 Fifth Wheel Hitch a Good Fit for 2019 GMC Sierra 3500HD with OEM Rail Kit
Question:
I currently have a Reece Elite and want to upgrade to this hitch in my new 2019 GMC HD. I had to purchase two shims to take up slack in the elite after a year. Will this hitch suffer from the same design as my elite and eventually start moving back and forth?

Expert Reply:
The Reese M5 fifth wheel hitch part # RP30890 is a direct fit for the factory fifth wheel rail kit you have in your 2019 GMC Sierra 3500. This is a new design that use a different puck design than the Elite that you have so it would not have the same tendencies to require shims as your old hitch. Which by the way is not a common issue with the Elite hitches at all.
This hitch will fit tight to your factory rail kit for a very quiet and smooth ride. I attached a review video on it for more info as well.
