Best 5th Wheel Hitch For 2021 GMC Sierra 3500 Long Bed With 5th Wheel Prep Package
Question:
I have 2021 GMC 3500HD dually with an 8 bed and the factory gooseneck/5th wheel package puck. I want to tow a 30 Gulf Stream Yellowstone trailer that weighs 14k. What do you recommend for a hitch?

The best option for a 5th wheel hitch for your 2021 GMC Sierra 3500 with the factory puck system is from B&W, with the correct part being the following:
- B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3710
There are a number of reasons why the Companion is the best 5th wheel hitch, with the main reason being it is constructed to ensure you have the most comfortable towing experience possible. The Companion has a truly massive jaw system along with cushioned bushings and a pivoting head, all of which combine to ensure you have the most relaxed ride as you tow your 5th wheel trailer.
The thing that makes the most difference between the Companion and other hitches is the jaw system I mentioned. The jaws on the Companion are a full 1 inch thick and act like an adhesive to trailer's king pin. This is the biggest reason the Companion - more than any other fifth wheel hitch - minimizes the chucking, jarring and noise that can occur when towing a fifth wheel trailer. This makes a massive difference in how comfortable your ride is, especially on longer trips.
The Companion # BWRVK3710 is considered by most - myself included - to be the highest-quality fifth wheel hitch in the industry. As evidence of this you can see that this hitch has been reviewed well over1,000 times by our customers (as of this writing), and they have given it a nearly unanimous 5-star rating.
