B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches & B&W Turnoverball Underbed

Question:

I have a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD Dually with 8 foot bed that has a BandW Model 1012 Gooseneck setup. I also have a Reese 5th wheel hitch that I kept from my last truck but need to install the mounting rails. I was looking at the Model BW-2506 or Reese 5066-58. Will either fit without removing the gooseneck?

The B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches, # BWRVK2506 is a confirmed fit for your 2015 Chevy 3500. If you have the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch, # BWGNRK1012, already installed the two will be compatible. From discussions with Reps from B&W they stated that most manufacturers of bed rail kits, such as Reese, will have products that can probably mount along side the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch without issue. However, they can only confirm that their B&W bed rail system will. Too many possible variations to how others manufacture the brackets. So you can probably go with the Reese if you choose to and be just fine, but I recommend the B&W option.
