How To Install B&W Companion Hitch in 2014 Silverado 2500 Equipped With Curt Gooseneck Hitch
Question:
I have a B and W companion. my new truck has a round goose neck receiver. my previous truck had a square receiver. I think this present goose neck is made by Curt. What do I need to use my B and W companion to my truck. Thanks

Expert Reply:
The # BWRVK3500 B&W Companion that mounts using the B&W Turnover Ball gooseneck hitch wouldn't be compatible with a Curt gooseneck hitch. Your best bet would be to replace the existing gooseneck with with a # BWGNRK1012 B&W Turnover Ball hitch. This would be the least expensive option that would allow you to retain your excellent B&W Companion 5th wheel hitch.
I'll link you to a video showing the Turnover ball being installed on a 2014 Silverado 2500 like yours.
