Buy Puck parts install your self. Buy a new Patriot slider. Sell old Patriot on CL
Thanks to everyone for all the input. VERY helpful!!
It's my understanding that the Patriot will not fit the puck system. It only fits the rails which I do NOT want. We only pull 4 days each year. The hitch is out of the truck the remainder of the time. Don't want those rails attached to the bed.
My current thought is to cancel the 5th wheel prep and hitch. Then buy the puck system...intall it myself...purchase a Companion slider base (fits puck system)...use the head from my current fixed Companion hitch.
Purchased truck the day before Thanksgiving. Hope to cancel the 5th package in the morning....we will see!
