How to Determine if You Need the Slider or Fixed B&W Companion Hitch on a 2022 GMC Sierra 2500
Question:
I have a 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 with prep package. I am wanting to get the B&W Companion hitch, how do I know if I need the slider version or not?

Expert Reply:
Whether you need the slider version of the B&W Companion or not for your 2022 GMC Sierra is going to depend on your bed length. If you have the 6-3/4' bed then you will want to use the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3775 which is the slider version. If you have an 8' bed then you will use the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3710 which is the fixed (non-slider) version. The slider provides the necessary turning clearance when towing a 5th wheel with a short bed truck.
Either way you are getting a great hitch that is sourced and made in the USA and has a limited lifetime warranty.
