What are the Weights of the Individual Components in the B&W 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3400-5W
Question:
Can you tell me what the total weight of this hitch is? How much does the base piece weigh? How much does the hitch head weigh?

Expert Reply:
I checked with my contact at B&W for the weights of the individual component parts in their under-bed 5th wheel hitch kit consisting of parts # BWRVK3400-5W and # BWGNRK1067-5W. The weight of the head unit is 75-lbs; the base weighs 207-lbs and the under-bed assembly weighs 112-lbs.
For reference I have linked both the written instructions and an installation video showing this hitch being installed in a Silverado.
