Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2021 Chevy Silverado 3500 Short Bed w/ the Factory Puck System
Question:
Recommend fifth wheel hitch for 2021 Chevy Silverado 3500 short bed. Thanks!

Helpful Expert Reply:
Since your 2021 Chevy Silverado has the shorter bed and the factory puck system, I highly recommend the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider item # BWRVK3775 you were looking at. The Companion Slider has a 20,000 lbs capacity and will give you 12" of travel for making tight turns and backing.
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.
I have linked an installation video below so you can see how to get this hitch set up and see some of the features demonstrated.
