Recommended Fifth Wheel Hitch For 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 With Prep Package For Reese Sidewinder
Question:
What hitch can I use with a side winder on trailer towed by 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 with prep package
asked by: Bob
Expert Reply:
I recommend the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch- Single Jaw - 20,000 lbs # RP30890 to use with the Reese Sidewinder on your trailer towed by the 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 with prep package. The Reese M5 will fit right into the prep package and can handle up to 20,000 lbs of gross towing weight. The wraparound design of the jaw provides increased security compared to the other hitches with 2 piece jaws because it is a stronger connection with the king pin of the revolution. I have contacted Reese before and they recommend the M5 for the Sidewinder as well.
If you need a little more weight capacity, I recommend the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # RP30895 that is rated for 27,000 lbs of gross towing weight.
If you do not already have a wedge that came with your Sidewinder, you can use the Sidewinder Universal Wedge part # 201100 with the M5 hitch.
