B&W 5th Wheel Hitch Comparison and Installation for a 2021 Toyota Tundra
Question:
I would like to view a video on the install of 5th wheel install kit BWRVK3255 for 5th wheel hitch BWRVK3255. Is there one available, I could not find one on your site? How does the BWRVK3255 5th wheel hitch compare to the BWRVK3500-5W? Im wondering which is better for my needs. Thanks

I have attached a review video for the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3255 which also shows the installation process.
The B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3255 has an 18,000 lb. weight capacity and will fit industry standard rails like the B&W 5th Wheel Installation Kit with Spacers for Toyota Tundra # BWRVR3204-00.
The B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3500-5W has a 20,000 lb. capacity and needs a specific set of rails which are the Custom Underbed Installation Kit for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWGNRK1257-5W.
Using the Patriot with the industry standard rails will provide you with more versatility for 5th wheel hitch options since there are a lot more hitches that use industry standard rails.
While using the Companion with the gooseneck rails will allow you to use the Companion hitch and also have a turnover ball for a gooseneck trailer.
If you plan on towing a gooseneck trailer as well, then the Companion would be the way to go.
