Comparing the B&W Companion and Curt Q20 for a 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 with Pucks
Question:
How does the bwrvk 3700 compare to curt Q20
asked by: Pete
Expert Reply:
The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch part # BWRVK3700 is a pretty significant upgrade over the Curt Q20 OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16530-16025. The jaws on the B&W hitch are much thicker than the Curt hitch so they will be more secure and form a tighter grip on the kingpin so there will be less movement which translates to a smoother ride. The handle on the B&W hitch has a cam action whereas the Curt hitch just has a standard action and what this means is that there will be much less force required to move the handle and uncouple the trailer on uneven ground. Last but not least, the head on the B&W hitch can be removed easily so you can break the hitch up into pieces for removal or installation which will save your back.
In summary, I highly recommend the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch part # BWRVK3700 over the Curt Q20 OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16530-16025 for a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 3500.
