Can A B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch From A 2019 Chevy Silverado Fit A 2023 GM Puck System
Question:
Is the puck configuration for the fifth wheel hitch on the 3500 Chevy Silverado the same on the 23 year models as it was on the 2019 model?
asked by: Rob B
Expert Reply:
GM changed the puck spacing in 2020 so a B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel hitch # BWRVK3700 for a 2019 year model would not fit a 2023 year model. If you have this you can mitigate the cost by purchasing only a replacement base # BWRVB3710. This would allow you to simply swap the head over to the new base and fit the puck system in the 2023 year model.
