Expert Reply:
The 20K rated Reese Sidewinder 5th Wheel King Pin with Rotating Turret, # RP34FR can be used with most any fixed position 5th wheel hitch. You will not want to use any rotating turret pin box in conjunction with a slide operation 5th wheel hitch. If your B&W hitch is Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider, such as the # BWRVK3400, this is a gooseneck-to-5th-wheel trailer hitch and not suitable for use with a rotating turret type pin box either. If you let us know what your current model of B&W hitch is we can identify definitively if this particular Sidewinder pin box will work.
