Which Legs Can I Use to Adapt My B&W Companion Hitch to 2020 GMC Sierra 2500 with OEM Prep Package
Question:
I purchased BandW Slider Companion from etrailer about 2 years ago. It is an awesome hitch. But with my King Pin on my 5th wheel being long I cannot use the slider feature as it will hit the tail gate of my truck. I want to change out the base from a BandW slider companion to a BandW stationary companion. I currently have BandW BWRVK3775 which is 20k pound rated. I have a 2020 GMC 2500 6 3/4 bed with the factory Puck System. Is BandW BWRVB3710 the correct part I need to change out the slider base for stationary? Thank you

First off, thank you for being a loyal etrailer customer!
I can confirm that you've found the correct part; the Replacement Base for B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC - 20,000 lbs # BWRVB3710 is the correct base for your 2020 GMC Sierra 2500 with the OEM prep package. You'll be able to swap the head from your # BWRVK3775 to this base and give yourself a static 5th wheel hitch that won't tear up the tailgate on your new truck.
