Question:
We are purchasing a new GMC 2023 2500hd Denali with O E M prep kit. Will the BW patriot16000 # BWRVK 3270 and the rail kit # RWRVK 2505. Will these items work and be compatible for this truck. Thank you

Expert Reply:
If you have the OEM prep package then you don't need the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2505 you're looking at.
Instead, you'd just want to use the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3775 which is virtually the same as the Patriot but will drop directly into your pucks eliminating the need for base rails.
