Lighter Weight Slider Fifth Wheel Hitch Solution for 2024 Chevy Silverado 3500 Short Bed
Question:
What does the Curt A20 slider weigh with and without the OEM adapter. How does it compair weight wise to the BandW Companion. Trying to decide what hitch will be easier to install and remove from my 2024 Silverado with factory 5th wheel prep.

Hey Douglas, the Curt A20 with slider part # C55DR weighs 211 ls and the GM adapter part # C88KR weighs 88 lb.
The B and W Companion Slider part # BWRVK3775 weighs 250 lbs so it weighs a little less in total. The head of this comes off pretty easy too to save weight by making a couple trips to split up the weight. The head weighs 70 lbs. Based on this it would be the easier to install and remove solution.
