  • Enjoy our B&W system - we have a Turnover Ball for the gooseneck trailers and a Companion fifth wheel.
  • ...another B&W Companion fan...great hitch by a great American company who knows how to take care of their customers.

    Regards
  • x3 on the B&W. It is very easy to remove the Companion from the bed. I do it myself unassisted. I did install the Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch and the Companion myself also. Drilling the 4 inch hole in the bed was a little unnerving but it went well.
  • You will hear about the "best" from owners. Then watch the on line videos on Curt products. It's an American Company that builds a very high quality hitch that can stand up to any other. Look at its design and you will be impressed!

    Take a look at the various B&W hitches. Outstanding quality and an outstanding company to stand behind them.

    I have a Valley hitch, which has been popular out here in the west. I really have been happy with it. You don't have to be perfect on the backup, and have never had a problem with it in 5 years. It can be pulled in 1 or 2 pieces (reduces the amount of weight you need to carry).

    But everyone has their preference, and you will get a lot of choices from this forum.
