The B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with Slider part # BWRVK3270 won't work with picture frame adapters that drop into pucks or a gooseneck opening like the Curt X5 5th Wheel Base Rail Adapters. Instead, I recommend the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with Slider part # C16541 which is compatible with all of the Curt X5 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapters. The A20 has an interlocking jaw design, removable head, and easy to use indicator system.
