Any decent machine shop could build you an adapter that would fit the round Curt-style base and that the B&W Companion would bolt down to. Frankly, it's always surprised me a bit that B&W doesn't make an adapter for this.

Thanks for the idea, Lyle.
However, I would rather go with a tried and true method. Especially if something unthinkable were to go wrong, that it would be backed and warranted by someplace that would have deeper pockets or at least greater liability insurance. I just read that last year Andersen increased their warranty to Limited Lifetime, and added what they call a $5 million supplemental warranty. Whatever that means.
I am surprised too that B&W doesn't offer an adapter, but I suspect Reese would probably try to sue them for some type of infringement. What surprises me even more is that Reese hasn't made they're own hitch/adapter that is compatible with it!
Thanks again,
Tom
