Are any of you running the B&W 5th wheel Companion hitch with the B&W rollover goose neck hidden ball setup?
My replacement truck is a 3500 HD long box dually. The previous owner installed the B&W hidden ball system, and I really like the idea of having an unobstructed bed when I'm not towing our 2014 336 RE.
However, the only "approved" goose neck setup I've found is the Reese Goose Box, which, in a phone call to Lippert, was verified as being approved by them for use with their 5th wheel wings and frames. Even so, there isn't much in the way of hard test data to make a consumer feel comfortable with the conversion.
So, I'm pretty well set on buying a Companion hitch to make use of the already installed B&W setup, but stay with a traditional 5ver hitch vs a goose box.
Do any of you have experience with either one of these solutions, Companion and Goose Box, and could you make a recommendation? All feedback is greatly appreciated.
