I have not been able to find a hitch shop that has ever installed an Andersen 5th wheel hitch, and I need to get a name of a shop to call.
All you need to do is get the Goose Neck Ball mounted to the truck. Any B&W installer will do that. Andersen shipped my hitch to the house. It took 10 minutes to unpack it and check it out, then about another 10 minutes to drop it on the Ball. Dug out my torque wrench and a 15/16 socket. Torqued the set bolt to 50 ft-lbs and I was done. You don't need a hitch shop. Only for the B&W turnover ball installation. Mounting the Andersen is a 'no brainer'. If this old fart can do it anybody can.
