The Custom Underbed Installation Kit for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches part # BWGNRK1062-5W for the 2006 GMC Sierra 3500 needs replacement pin handle part # BW1900-2-2007. If your actual pin is bent on the underside of the center section near the ball hole, you will need to replace the center section with part # BWGNRC962. The actual pin on the center section near the ball hole is not replaceable as a single part. I have attached an photo of that part. The replacement pin handle BW1900-2-2007 attaches to the main part in the photo.

For the tie downs to secure your Lance Camper, I recommend to use Torklift SuperHitch part # TLC1205 for the 2006 GMC Sierra 3500 as long as it's not a deep drop 10" bumper.

Then you can use Torklift tie downs part # TLC2204 for the front and part # TLR3503 for the rear unless your truck has a step or board underneath the truck bed.

If your truck has a step or board underneath the truck bed, you will need part # TLC4203 for the front and part # TLR3503 for the rear tie downs.

Please let me know if your truck has a deep drop bumper and I can make additional recommendations.

There will be a lever underneath the rear wheel well of your truck that will need to be pulled out so that the ball of the hitch can release. I attached a picture of what the lever will look like.

Answer 5

Normally the pin pulls right out easily. What you can do is try spraying lube like WD40 down into the hitch tube to see if you can get it let go. What could also be happening is that the base is binding up in the hitch tube. It may not be an ideal…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…

Answer 9

It sounds like the purpose of getting the air helper spring would be to counteract the 1 inch compression you're getting in your rear suspension caused by the pin weight of your 5th wheel. If that's the case, I believe that the AirLift 5000…
