B and W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with Slider Review- Video
Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today we're gonna be checking out the B&W Patriot 18K Sliding Fifth Wheel. The whole purpose of a sliding type fifth wheel hitch like this one here is to allow us to get more cab clearance essentially. And so you're gonna find these a lot in short-bed type trucks, right Because in short beds this will sit a little bit closer up to the cab and not give us that extra clearance that we need. That way when we are trying to make real tight turns at the campsite or maneuver around into a parking lot or something like that, what we want to avoid is keeping this in this fixed position, making that tight turn and end up crashing our trailer into the cab corner of her truck right, not good. So with this setup, when you run into that type of situation, you're able to slide this back. more

Hey guys, Kevin at etrailer and today we're gonna be taking a look at the CURT E16 5th Wheel Hitch. Operating this hitch is super simple. While your handle is down, it's not gonna be able to come out so it's locked in place so you know that your hitch isn't gonna be able to uncouple from your king pin. If you lift your handle up, you can kind of feel as you're lifting it up, it kind of pops up out of here so that you can actually uncouple. You can pull that slide jaw out, lock it in place and then you can also recouple up. So as you're pulling up to your trailer it is gonna tilt down. more

Then the B&W Companion with slider base is going to be the hitch for you. With this slider base, it has feet designed to drop straight into the puck system that comes with your Ford towing prep package. The handles are super easy to use, simply just pull them out to unlock your hitch or, once you have your hitch dropped in, just pull 'em in towards the base and then lock 'em up with your pin and clip. This makes installation and removal for an empty bed to tow any other items, maybe you're moving some furniture, maybe you just wanna load this up with some other gear and don't want to have that hitch in the way, just makes it super easy to get it outta here. more
