I had seen a while back maybe in Trailer Life or some other publication a plan for a 5th Wheel hitch cart. Very simple construction with castors etc that you could build to just below your tailgate height and easily off-load your hitch when taking it out and setting on the cart for ease of storing in whatever corner of your garage or shop when the hitch is not in use or during winter months. I cannot find now and curious if anyone has any plans on a simple cart of this purpose?
Just put a new B&W 18k Companion hitch in my 2014 - F350 and before next winter would like to come up with something for this.
Got an engine hoist on sale for $99 (with an engine stand, which I later sold) and a 1,000 lb furniture dolly for $20. Only thing I had to do was to have a welder extend the boom a bit to reach to the center of the bed over the tailgate. Works for me.
