Question:

Expert Reply:
Unless there's a chance in the future that you may upgrade to a larger 5th wheel that weighs more than 20K, the B&W Companion 20K model, part # BWRVK3300 would work great in the factory pucks of your 2021 Ford F-350. If you want to leave your options open, it might not be a bad idea to go with the 25K # BWRVK3305. The 20K model will handle the 5th wheel you described perfectly.
If you'd like to install a 7-way trailer connector in your truck bed so you don't have to run the trailer connector cable up over the tailgate, you can install one using part # C57008.
I've linked to demonstration videos for the hitches and an install video for the trailer connector/wiring harness mentioned above.
