How To Use B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitch For Ford Prep Package In 1999 Ford F-250
Question:
Hello, i have a BW RVK3300 hitch. Can you tell me if you sell the puck prep for this hitch? My pickup is a 1999 ford f250. I do not have the prep package in it, but I would like to get the underbed puck system like one that says it is for the Reese. Can you help? Thank you. Regards

I have another option for you, but the Reese Elite Underbed Rails that use the same pucks as the OEM prep package for your 1999 Ford F-250 have been discontinued.
Instead I recommend installing the Custom Underbed Installation Kit for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches #BWGNRK1108-5W which is confirmed to fit your truck. This will also be able to be used as a gooseneck hitch if needed.
To use the B&W Companion OEM 5th-Wheel Hitch for Ford Super Duty Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs # BWRVK3300 you currently have you will need to replace the base with the Replacement Base for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - 20,000 lbs # BWRVB3500. While I am sure this is not the news you were wanting to hear, it will be the most cost effective option as it allows you to keep using your existing hitch.
I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
