Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation 2023 Chevy Silverado 2500hd with OEM Prep Package
Question:
What sliding 5th wheel hitch do you have that is compatible with the OEM prep 5th wheel puck system on the 2023 Chevy Silverado 2500hd? I need one that will work with the Reese Revolution 16k pin box on my Rockwood RV. I currently have a Reese 15k 5th wheel slider that goes in my GMC Sierra 1500 with the rails mounted in the bed. Is there some conversion rails that fit the puck system and allows the use of my current hitch in the new 2500hd? Thanks

Since you have a Reese Revolution pivoting pin box you actually will need (and want) to use a fixed hitch and not a slider. Sliders are designed to provide additional turning clearance since it moves the pivot point back for the hitch but the Reese Revolution provides this for you already since the pivot point is not at the front of the pin box and is 22-1/2 inches back. Also worth mentioning is that if you slid a slider hitch back the Revolution Pin Box would hit the truck's tailgate.
The B and W Companion part # BWRVK3710 would be a great option that fits directly to the OEM prep package of your 2023 Chevy Silverado 2500. It's easy to use, very well made (here in the US), and breaks down into smaller sections to make installing/removing easier as well.
Or to use your current hitch in the bed of your truck you'd just need the Curt rail kit adapter part # C88KR and you'd be set as this adapts the pucks to the rail design your Reese hitch was designed for.
