Recommended 5th wheel puck hitch for 2022 gmc 2500hd standard bed 2022 Allen Idletime 219 24.5’ 5th wheel Do I also need a slider

Expert Reply:
For your 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 short bed with the OEM rail kit towing a 2022 Allen Idletime which has a square and wide trailer nose I would recommend using a slider hitch like part # BWRVK3775 so that you have turning clearance. Sometimes if the trailer has a tapered nose you can get away with a fixed hitch like the # BWRVK3710 but when towing with a short bed truck but in your situation your trailer would require a slider. The Companion slider I mentioned # BWRVK3775 is a really nice hitch that will work really well for you. It is the quietest and most well made hitch that fits your OEM pucks and is made in the USA.
