Slider Hitch Recommendation for a 2003 GMC 2500HD with a B and W Turnover Ball
Question:
Thanks for all the advice... I just bought a trailer with the Husky 16k Slider 5th Wheel Hitch. My truck has the BW Gooseneck turnover square hole already installed. Will the Curt X5 be able to handle the Husky? Any recommendations other than buying the BW Companion? Thanks again!!!! My truck is a 2003 GMC 2500HD 4x4 Diesel

Expert Reply:
The Curt X5 Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Adapter part # 16310 would work well in the B and W Turnover Gooseneck hitch you have installed in your 2003 GMC 2500HD but it is not compatible with your Husky 16k Slider Hitch.
Your best option would be to go with a B and W Companion hitch with a slider, part # BWRVK3400.
You could use the X5 and then also get a different slider hitch, but by the time you buy a new slider hitch and the X5 the # BWRVK3400 would give you a better hitch at the same price points.
