Reflection 5th wheel what hitch?

[El Pato]

I have the B&W companion manual slider. towing with a 6'5" bed. I have yet to need the slider and have been in some moderately tight situations. It is a little heavy to remove but is nice to have a clean bed when you need to use the truck for something else.

At what height did you set your pivot arms? My understanding is there's three positions 17", 18" & 19". My Companion should be delivered Tuesday & we should be picking up our new 303 later in the week. Thanks!

Not sure of the height but it is the center position.

Matt - You should try your slider. Makes backing the 5th wheel much more responsive with the pin behind the truck axle rather than directly over it in the tow position. I have a manual slider and use it every time.

That is what I do, also. Plus, there is there is more leeway when needing to back in at a sharp angle so the camper and truck don't meet.

I have my B&W pivot arms in the middle position.

B&W Patriot Slider in our F250 but with the 6’9” bed we haven’t needed the slider yet.
I installed the hitch myself and it is set to the lowest setting 17”.
We pull what I call a “mini” Reflection, the 220RK, which is only 9K lbs. Hitch handles twice that.
