Replacement Base To Use B&W Companion BWRKVK3500 In OEM Pucks Of 2021 Ram 3500
Question:
I have a BandW RVK3500 5th wheel hitch in my 2011 Ram 2500 SLT Crew Cab Long Bed 4x4. I am considering trading my 2011 Ram for a 2021 Ram 3500 Big Horn Crew Cab Long Bed 4x4 with the factory prep for 5th wheel RAM 4-puck system. Can I use my RVK3500 in the new 2021 Ram? I love my current hitch and would like to save the expense of buying a new RVK3600 if my RVK3500 is compatible or can be adapted to fit.

To use the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3500 from your 2011 Ram 2500 SLT Crew Cab Long Bed in a 2021 Ram 3500 Big Horn Crew Cab Long Bed with the OEM Pucks you will be able to use the head assembly but will need to replace the base with the Replacement Base for B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ram # BWRVB3600. This save you some money from needing to by a complete new hitch.
I included a video for both of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
