Recommended 5th Wheel and Gooseneck Towing Parts for a 2020 Ford F-350 Super Duty Long Bed
Question:
I have a long bed 2020 F-350 with the OEM puck system. I will be using the truck to tow both gooseneck and fifth wheel trailers. What do you recommend to use for towing either type of trailer.

Thank you for all of the info!
For gooseneck towing with your 2020 Ford F-350 Super Duty I recommend using the B&W Ball and Safety Chain Kit # BWGNXA2061 because all of the internal and external components are plated or made from stainless steel for corrosion protection which means that you don't have to worry about these rusting or corroding over time. This kit is also made in the USA and has a max towing rating of 30,000 lbs.
Then for 5th wheel towing I recommend the Reese M5 # RP30922 simply because it has the most weight capacity at 27,000 lbs. In addition to the massive weight rating it has a single wrap-around Talon jaw that gives you a great solid connection and a fully articulating head with an extra-large landing area - all of which means you will have a very enjoyable towing experience.
Please note that even though these have 30K and 27K weight ratings you do need to take into account the max rating of your F-350. I took a look at the Ford towing guide and there is a pretty big range of towing ratings so you'll just want to double check to make sure everything is safe.
