The B&W Gooseneck hitch frame, is tight up against the bottom of the truck bed. This is the frame crossmember that the Companion Hitch sits on with the spacers in addition to being supported by the Gooseneck Hitch. I know several that have this hitch with no damage to the truck bed including myself.

Sorry but you can not have it both ways. Both the B&W and Andersen hitches use the gooseneck hitch to hold/pull the outter frame down onto the bed floor. That places the pin weight on the sheet metal bed and tophats, then the frame. Both are a compromise vs a hitch that is actually attached at the four conners to the TV frame.

So how many miles of experience do you have with a B&W or Andersen Hitch?
I can tell you for fact that my bed was being pushed down in my 11 RAM Dually with my 18K Companion until B&W sent me spacers that transferred the weight to the bed cross rails then to the frame. This is how a hitch should be attached that when removed leaves the bed clear.
