Expert Reply:
The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch item # BWRVK3715 weighs 156 lbs.
The Base for B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC item # BWRVB3715 weighs 86 lbs.
The Head Assembly for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches item # BWRVC3006 weighs 70 lbs.
The Companion 5th wheel hitch has a 25,000 lbs capacity and fits in the GM puck systems from 2020 to present.
If you are worried about the weight then I recommend purchasing the B&W 5th Wheel Lifting Device for Companion Hitches item # BWRVXA3130. This heavy duty steel tool lets you lift your B&W 5th-wheel hitch from your truck bed with a hoist. The 5th-Wheel jaws clamp around the device for a secure grip.
