Can Companion Hitch be Converted to Fit OEM Rail Kit of 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500
Question:
I recently traded my truck and now have a 2020 Silverado 2500 HD with the OEM prep for the 5th wheel hitch. I have a companion slider I used in my 2015 2500 HD. Can I just buy this base and use the top from my hitch ? Thanks for you assistance

Yes you can do exactly what you mentioned doing. You can take the head from your current Companion hitch and install it on the B and W Slider Base for 2020 GM rail kits part # BWRVB3775 and you'd have a hitch that fits your truck. Basically you'd have the # BWRVK3775 at that point.
