Recommended B&W Companion for a 2023 Ram 2500 w/ Puck System

Question:

I am going to be picking up a 2023 Ram 2500 long bed truck and I need a 5th wheel hitch that will fit in the puck system. I am not seeing anything listed for my truck. Is there a B&W Companion that will work?

Yes, there is a B&W Companion that will fit in the puck system of your long bed Ram 2500. It is the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Ram Towing Prep Package item # BWRVK3600. This 5th wheel hitch has a 25,000 lbs capacity and will mount directly to the puck system for easy installation and removal.

The Companion's 1" thick dual jaws will give you a 360-degree jaw to kingpin contact. This system minimizes the chucking, jarring and noise that can occur when towing a fifth wheel trailer. This not only provides a more secure connection but also a quieter more comfortable towing experience.

The Companion also has a cam-action latching handle that helps you to uncouple your trailer even if the terrain isn't level. The fully articulating head also helps to improve your ride quality while easing the effort put into hooking up to your trailer.

The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # BWRVK3600 weighs 217 lbs and is made in the USA.

I have linked an installation and review video along with a picture that will show you what the Companion Slider looks like installed.

Don't forget your lube plate. The Lube Plate for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches - 10" Diameter item # 16721 will prevent scratches on your fifth-wheel's skid plate and ease trailer hookup.
