Thanks, Marc

B&W is a primo hitch. Check out the website to see how it installs. I installed mine by myself in an afternoon. I also have the companion fifth wheel hitch for it as well.

B&W is a great hitch, from what I've heard. My boss' youngest brother has been using one for several years. It even survived being in an accident with his trailer attached. Trailer and B&W was fine, but the truck was totaled. They hit a patch of ice on a curve and jackknifed it in the ditch. Still as good as new.

B&W is good stuff. There is a guy on eBay out of colorado that sells them for about $340 shipped. The install is easy. It is all bolt on. At least on my 3rd gen. 2nd gen should be the same or similar.

The B&W hitch was easy to install on my 04 and a rock solid performer. It's tougher than my truck - period. Nice to have a product that you have no worries about whatsoever...

B & W = 30k rating

my truck = 8800lbs rating

how much does your truck weigh?

 

[TGibbs]

got me. 6000-7000. I think the 8800 is the GVWR for the trailer if im not mistaken

I weighed mine the other day 7100lbs
