The Companion is new and improved. Higher capacity, more height adjustment and adjustable feet for better fit are a few of the improvements. The B&W Companion RV 5th Wheel Hitch is available as an accessory to the B&W Underbed Turnover Gooseneck Hitch continuing the B&W tradition of "A Hitch When You Need It, A Level Bed When You Don't." The B&W Underbed Turnover Gooseneck Hitch is first installed and then the Companion latches into the 2-1/2" square hole. Simply remove the Companion when you need a flatbed.
