The best 5th wheel hitch for your 2023 GMC Sierra 3500 HD with the factory puck system is easily the B&W Companion because its construction is designed specifically to ensure you have the best possible ride when towing. Its jaw system is a behemoth, as they measure a full 1 inch thick, and their tolerance - the space between where the jaws meet - is +/- .002 inch. This allows the jaws to have a constant vice-like grip around the king pin, which ensures the smoothest, quietest ride you can get when towing a 5th wheel trailer.

There are two options for your 2023 GMC Sierra 3500 with the factory puck system, the sliding Companion or the fixed Companion, depending on if you have a standard (short) bed or long bed (you can use the fixed hitch in the standard bed if your trailer has a Sidewinder):

- Standard Bed: B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch with Slider for Chevy/GMC # BWRVK3775

- Long Bed: B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Chevy/GMC - 20,000 lbs # BWRVK3710 or 25,000 lbs # BWRVK3715

The Companion is considered by most - myself included - to be the highest-quality fifth wheel hitch in the industry, and our customers agree, with thousands of reviews having given it a near 5-star review.
