Expert Reply:
You are correct, a B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3715 is the 5th wheel hitch I recommend for your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 3500. This hitch is rated for a trailer weight up to 25,000lbs with a tongue weight up to 6,250lbs. It will drop right into the factory prep/puck system on your Silverado and best of all it is Made in the USA.
Be sure to use a Lube Plate # RP83002 to reduce the wear and tear on the hitch. This is much cleaner than using grease on the mating surfaces.
If you already have a hitch the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter # DM6333 will allow you to use a 5th wheel hitch that mounts to the Industry Standard Rails.
