Is there an Adapter to Convert a Reese Elite E18 5th Wheel to Fit the Chevy Factory Puck System?
Question:
I have a 2016Silverado with a Reese Elite E18 fifth wheel. Is there an adapter kit for that hitch for a 2024 Silverado? I think the Elite series is discontinued and replaced with the M5 series. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
No, there is not. The Reese M5 and Reese Elite E18 Hitch heads are different so you would not be able to swap the legs out.
If your 2024 Chevy Silverado has the factory puck system you will want the Reese M5 item # RP26FR. This one has the legs that attach directly to the in bed pucks.
