Can I Use a B&W Companion For OEM Pucks in a Reese Elite Under Bed Mounting Rail Kit
Question:
Can you tell me if the B and W # RVK3705 will mount to an existing under the bed puck system? I have a 2011 with a Reese 18K Elite hitch and under bed puck mounting system the I want to use the B and W RVK3705.

In this case, the Reese Elite systems are created the same and I do believe that the system you've got in a 2011 Chevy Silverado is going to be the same as the one that's in the 2011 Ford; that system is designed to recreate the Ford OEM pucks similar to the way the # RP30126 will. For this reason you should be able to use the B&W Companion for Ford OEM pucks # BWRVK3300. I would measure the distances between the pucks and if they're exactly the same 13" x 30" then you can use that # BWRVK3300 instead of the # BWRVK3705.
If you can check those measurements and let me know I'm happy to see if there is another option or solution for you to use the B&W Companion hitch though, as they're a really great option.
