OE Puck System
Expert Take
A fixed 20K puck-mount Companion that installs without rails and pulls out with a lever afterward. The cushioned, fully-articulating head keeps the ride smooth and dead quiet down the road.
About This Product
The B&W Companion 20K in this configuration is designed for trucks with under-bed gooseneck prep instead of factory pucks. If your truck came with a gooseneck ball hole in the bed instead of four pucks, B&W makes an adapter that lets you use the Companion with that setup.
Twenty thousand pounds towing capacity, same quality Companion construction. The head pivots, jaws wrap tight, bushings keep it quiet. The difference is the mounting system underneath.
This opens up the Companion to trucks that would otherwise need a completely different hitch style. If you have gooseneck prep and want a fifth wheel hitch, check if this configuration works for your truck.
Same easy removal when you want your bed back. Made in USA by B&W.
