Expert Take
This is the 20K Companion configured for industry-standard rails, so it needs rails already bolted in the bed. Once mounted it tows with the same cushioned, articulating head and chucking-free ride as the puck versions.
About This Product
The B&W RVK3550 Companion is a 20,000-pound fifth wheel hitch for RAM trucks with the factory OE puck system. It drops directly into your RAM bed pucks without requiring a separate rail adapter.
The Companion series is designed for trucks with factory puck systems. Skip the adapter step entirely. Drop the hitch into your pucks, lock it in place, and you are ready to tow. When you need your bed empty, the hitch lifts out in seconds.
The fully articulating head pivots in all directions for a smooth ride. The dual-jaw mechanism grabs the kingpin securely with a visual indicator confirming the connection.
B&W makes this hitch in the USA with heavy-duty steel construction. The 20,000-pound rating handles most fifth wheel trailers on the road.

24K SuperGlide
The 24K SuperGlide rail version brings PullRite's automatic short-bed slider to trucks set up with standard rails, self-sliding on turns for full cab clearance. Tows great for 24,000 lbs, but you need the rails installed and the auto-slide head is heavy.
