Pro Series 15000 Hitch

Recently purchased a used Dodge 3500 Cummins with a Pro Series 1500 hitch mounted in bed. I wrecked my 97 which had a Reese 20K in it. Does anyone have experience with this hitch. It doesn't tilt side to side like my Reese, thinking I may change out the Pro Series for the Reese

    Best to switch to the 4 way tilt. I agree with your thinking.
    chevman PS maybe just the top would be needed if that is possible.

    I have a newer one, that has the tilt. Maybe just a head will be cheaper and mate up. Although the whole hitch may be cheaper in our wacky world.

    I have the same hitch, never had any issues.

    If you had to buy a hitch I would recommend that you buy a B&W. As it is I think you should try the hitch you have and see how you like it. The side to side tilting is not a must.

    If you have the puck system I "HIGHLY" advise one of these, you WILL thank me.

    DR, I have a 2003 Reese 15K Pro that I still use and it has the side tilt head. Is the one you have a Reese or different brand? That Companion looks like a sweet hitch.

    I just went from a Curt 16K that finally wore out after a number of years to a 18k B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Hitch, wish I would have done it a few years back ...

    Safe travels :)

    That Patriot is a great hitch for a good price. If using a rail hitch, you'd be hard pressed to find a better one.
