Expert Take
This 20K sliding Companion solves the short-bed clearance problem so you can take tight corners without smashing the front of the trailer. You slide it manually before turning, but the cushioned head tows like the fixed versions.
About This Product
The B&W Companion Slider in this configuration combines sliding clearance with gooseneck-prep mounting. For short bed trucks that have under-bed gooseneck holes instead of factory pucks, this gets you a slider hitch.
Twenty thousand pounds capacity, twelve inches of slide travel. The slider solves cab clearance on tight turns that fixed hitches cannot handle.
Same Companion quality - articulating head, solid jaw grip, quiet operation. The mounting is adapted for gooseneck prep instead of pucks.
Short bed plus gooseneck prep equals limited options. This is one of the best solutions available. Made in USA by B&W.
