B&W Trailer Hitches is an American manufacturer known for durable, innovative towing products, including gooseneck hitches, fifth-wheel hitches, receiver hitches, and ball mounts. Built in Kansas by employee-owners, B&W products are engineered for dependable performance, easy installation, and long-lasting quality.
B&W Trailer Hitches is an American manufacturer known for building innovative, dependable towing products designed to make hitching easier and towing more comfortable. The company began in 1987 in Humboldt, Kansas, when founders Roger Baker and Joe Works combined their fabrication experience to build custom truck beds and solve common problems faced by truck owners.
B&W changed the gooseneck hitch industry with the introduction of the Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch. Its under-bed mounting system and reversible hitch ball allowed truck owners to quickly store the ball beneath the bed, leaving a clean and unobstructed surface when the hitch was not in use. B&W later applied the same practical approach to the Companion Fifth Wheel Hitch, creating a removable fifth-wheel hitch engineered for a quiet, smooth, and secure towing experience.
Today, B&W manufactures gooseneck hitches, fifth-wheel hitches, receiver hitches, ball mounts, and towing accessories at its nearly 600,000-square-foot facility. The company is owned by approximately 500 employee-owners who remain committed to American manufacturing, trusted materials, skilled craftsmanship, and long-lasting product quality.
Whether you are towing a work trailer, livestock trailer, camper, or fifth wheel, B&W Trailer Hitches offers thoughtfully engineered towing equipment built to perform mile after mile.

The Companion™ 20K Hitch (Model 3710) is a fifth-wheel hitch designed for 2020–2026 GM Puck System trucks. It is rated for a maximum trailer weight of 20,000 lbs and a maximum trailer tongue weight of 5,000 lbs. Do not exceed these ratings or the tow and tongue ratings of your truck or trailer, as exceeding them may cause damage to towing components or loss of attachment between the trailer and truck.
The Companion™ 20K Hitch (Model 3710) fits 2020–2026 GM trucks equipped with the GM Puck System. The manual does not specify compatibility with other vehicle makes, models, or years.
No. The manual explicitly warns that PullRite® SuperGlide capture plates remove the pivot point between a trailer and coupler and should not be used with this hitch. Towing a trailer without a functioning pivot point between the hitch and trailer will cause significant damage to the hitch and may lead to serious injury or death.
Pin boxes with a wedge that relocates the pivot point, such as Reese® Sidewinder or Reese® Revolution, may be used. Pin boxes such as PullRite® SuperGlide that remove the pivot point must not be used.
Installation requires: a large torque wrench capable of measuring 110 ft-lbs, a 3/4" socket, a 7/16" socket, a 9/16" socket or wrench, a 7/32" Allen wrench, a pair of needle-nose pliers, and a hammer.
The BASE BOLT BAG (RVB3710) includes: 2 Pivot Arms (A and B), 8 × 1/2" × 1 1/2" Hex Cap Screws, 8 × 1/2" Lock Washers, 4 Threaded Blocks, 1 Wire Torsion Spring, 1 Mounting Clip, 1 × 1/4" × 1/2" Cap Screw, and 1 × 1/4" Lock Nut. The COUPLER BOLT BAG (RVC3006) includes: 2 × 3/8" Button Head Cap Screws and 2 × 3/8" Lock Nuts. Additional components include the Coupler, Coupler Handle, Coupler Jaws, Safety Pin, Saddle, Saddle Handle, Latch Pin, and Latch Handle.
Remove all parts from packaging and familiarize yourself with all parts and tools. Use the parts list to verify all parts and hardware are present. Remove any debris and obstructions from the truck bed, including plastic caps over attachment points. It may be necessary to remove plastic grommets from around the mounting points to fully seat the base down to the truck.
Mount the pivot arms using one of six locations illustrated in Table A1 on page 2. These locations provide flexibility in coupler height (vertical adjustment) and distance from the cab (horizontal adjustment). Choose a location so that your trailer will be as level as possible and have adequate turning clearance while towing. Vertical positions are 17" (lowest), 18" (medium), or 19" (highest). Horizontal positions vary by bed length: for short bed, king pin 3.5" behind axle (farthest from cab) or 1.5" behind axle (closest to cab); for long bed, king pin 1.5" behind axle (farthest from cab) or over axle (closest to cab).
Torque each 1/2" × 1 1/2" hex cap screw to 110 ft-lbs. After all screws are started through the arms and threaded blocks, torque each bolt to this specification.
The threaded blocks have threaded holes on one side and smooth bored holes on the other. When installing, the side with the smooth holes must be flat against the bolt plate. It is critical that each of the five holes in the threaded block matches up with the five vertical holes in the bolt plate. Pass the threaded blocks under the base, align the block with each set of screws, and start each screw. Installing the threaded blocks backward will not allow the pivot arms to be fully tightened and could lead to hitch failure.
1. Locate the 1/4" cap screw, lock nut, wire torsion spring, and mounting clip. Pass the 1/4" cap screw through the mounting clip and wire spring. Thread the 1/4" lock nut onto the cap screw and tighten just enough that the spring stays in place but can still rotate around the bolt. 2. Locate the flange closest to the truck cab on the driver side pivot arm. Place the clip so that when the spring's coil is in line with the edge of the arm, there is 1/2" of clearance between the bottom of the polyurethane bushing and the top of the spring. Drive the clip securely onto the flange with a hammer.
Remove the latch pins from each side of the base and rotate the handles out. Position the base over the attachment points. Carefully lower it until the latch cams pass through the floor and the base rests flat against the top of the attachment points.
Once the base is in place, remove the cotter pins from each of the four castle nuts. Engage the cams with each attachment point by turning the latch handles to the latched position. If a handle will not turn easily, loosen the castle nut until the cam freely turns. With the handles in the latched position, tighten the castle nut until snug. Rotate the latch handle open and closed, then tighten the castle nut slightly and repeat. Continue until you feel the cam engage the attachment point while closing the handle. The handle is set at proper tension when there is friction between the cam and attachment point but the handle can still be closed by hand without bumping, tapping, or forcing it closed. Do not set tension so that excessive force is required to close the handles, as this may result in property damage or personal injury.
Lubricate the polyurethane bushings on top of the pivot arms with high-grade lithium grease. Place the coupler over the pivot arms with the saddle handles parallel to the base in the latched position. Place the saddle lock pins through the saddle, then insert the hairpins through the holes in the end of the saddle lock pins to secure the coupler to the pivot arms.
1. Pull out the coupler arm and pin it with the safety locking pin near the base of the arm. 2. Using the two 3/8" × 1 1/4" button head cap screws and two 3/8" flanged lock nuts provided in the coupler bolt bag, attach the coupler handle to the arm and tighten. 3. Pull out the coupler handle safety pin. Use caution when installing the handle to avoid injury from the pinch point created when pulling the arm out.
Adjust the resting angle of the coupler plate by rotating the spring on the driver side pivot arm. Pulling the top of the spring away from the cab will increase the angle of the coupler plate. Set the angle so that the coupler will tilt away from the cab when coupling. Tighten the 1/4" nut once the spring's orientation is set.
1. Remove the safety pin from the coupler handle and open it. 2. Adjust the height of the fifth-wheel trailer so that the king pin plate is slightly lower than the top of the coupler. 3. Back the truck toward the trailer, centering the trailer's king pin in the coupler, until the king pin engages the jaws. 4. Close the coupler handle and insert the safety pin through the handle and the coupler. 5. Connect the brake and lighting systems before towing.
The pull test confirms the trailer is properly connected before towing. Ensure the truck is stationary with the emergency brake engaged and the tailgate down, trailer wheels chocked, and landing gear down supporting the trailer's weight. Confirm no one is between the truck and trailer. Release the emergency brake and engage the trailer brakes. Gently attempt to pull the trailer forward with the truck. When properly connected, the trailer will prevent the truck from moving. If the truck and trailer are not correctly attached, the trailer will separate from the truck.
1. Lower the landing gear and chock the trailer wheels. 2. Raise the trailer until the tongue weight is removed from the truck. 3. Unpin the coupler handle and rotate it to the open position to unlatch the jaws. If the jaws do not open, readjusting the landing gear may relieve pressure and allow them to open. 4. Use the safety pin to lock the handle in the open position. 5. When you are sure the landing gear will support the trailer, move the truck forward to release the jaws from the king pin. The jaws will always open when the pressure of the trailer is taken off the coupler as the truck pulls away.
To remove the coupler: remove the saddle lock pins, grab the saddle handles, and lift to remove the coupler from the pivot arms. To remove the base: remove the latch pins from each side of the base and turn the handles. Carefully lift and position the base out of the attachment points.
Approximately 15–25% of the trailer weight should be on the hitch. The maximum tongue weight is 5,000 lbs.
Determine if there is clearance between each truck and trailer combination before towing. Measure from the center of the coupler to the cab of the truck and from the king pin or pivot point of the trailer to the furthest forward corner of the trailer. Compare these measurements to ensure proper clearance when towing. Also inspect the clearance between the bed sides and the underside of the front of the trailer to ensure there is room for the pitch and roll of the trailer while towing. Allow adequate clearance between the bed side and the underside of the front of the trailer for pitch and roll.
A visual inspection of the hitch should be performed before each time you tow. Regularly check that all pinned connections are secure and that all bolted connections are at the correct torque specification. Check for cracks or damage to the hitch. Do not tow with the hitch if cracks or damage outside of normal wear is found. Towing with a hitch that has cracks or damage could result in damage to the tow vehicle, trailer, towing components, or loss of attachment between the tow vehicle and trailer. Base latch handle tension and all bolted connections should be checked regularly. The latches must have the proper resistance when rotating, and bolts must have proper torque.
Additional caution must be used when towing a wedge car trailer. Towing stability greatly depends on keeping the center of gravity as low as possible. Load heavy cars over the axles. Never tow with a single car on the front of the trailer. When towing a wedge car trailer, never exceed speeds that are reasonable for the roadway conditions (e.g., turns, going around a curve, etc.). Failure to account for proper trailer center of gravity and speeds that are reasonable for the roadway conditions may cause damage to the truck, trailer, towing components, and loss of attachment between the truck and trailer.
Grease the saddle through the grease zerk approximately every six months with multi-purpose grease. This allows the coupler to pivot freely. Also grease the jaws with multi-purpose automotive type chassis grease.
Lubricate the polyurethane bushings on top of the pivot arms with high-grade lithium grease before placing the coupler. Grease the saddle through the grease zerk approximately every six months with multi-purpose grease. Grease the jaws with multi-purpose automotive type chassis grease. When storing the hitch, lubricate the top surface of the coupler with multi-purpose automotive type chassis grease or use a nylon lube plate to provide a lubricated surface.
No. Do not modify this product in any manner. Doing so could alter its integrity and lead to a loss of attachment between the trailer and the tow vehicle.
The manual states that installation must be completed by someone who is aware of the hazards involved and is knowledgeable of proper safety procedures for vehicle installation and usage of the required equipment. The manual does not explicitly state whether professional installation is required or whether a trained individual may perform the installation themselves.
The Companion™ 20K Hitch fits 2020–2026 GM trucks with the GM Puck System. Verify your truck model year and puck system compatibility before purchasing.
You need a torque wrench (110 ft-lbs capacity), 3/4" and 7/16" sockets, 9/16" socket or wrench, 7/32" Allen wrench, needle-nose pliers, and a hammer.
The manual does not mention drilling, cutting, or permanent modifications to the truck frame. Installation uses the existing GM Puck System attachment points.
Torque all 1/2" × 1 1/2" hex cap screws to 110 ft-lbs.
Maximum trailer weight is 20,000 lbs; maximum tongue weight is 5,000 lbs. Do not exceed these ratings or your truck and trailer manufacturer's ratings.
Perform a visual inspection before each tow. Check that all pinned and bolted connections are secure and at correct torque, and inspect for cracks or damage. Verify latch tension each time the base is placed in the truck.
