Stop guessing on fitment. The B&W RVR2506 brackets are engineered to match specific truck bed configurations, giving you a solid, rattle-free foundation for your B&W Companion fifth wheel hitch. No drilling, no improvising -- just a precision fit that keeps your trailer tracking true mile after mile.
When you're pulling a fifth wheel trailer, the bracket system between your truck bed rails and your hitch head is every bit as important as the hitch itself. B&W's RVR2506 custom brackets are not universal -- they are purpose-built for specific truck models, machined to align precisely with factory bed rail geometry and existing mounting points. The result is a hitch installation that is solid, centered, and rated to carry real loads without flex or movement.
These brackets are part of B&W's Companion hitch ecosystem, the same system that introduced the fold-down hitch head design to the RV market. Whether you're a full-timer logging 30,000 miles a year or a weekend warrior heading to a seasonal campsite, getting the bracket foundation right is step one -- and the RVR2506 gets it right for the truck models it fits.
Engineered to specific truck bed rail dimensions -- not a universal compromise. Aligns with factory mounting points for a clean, rattle-free install.
Designed to work with B&W's Companion fifth wheel hitch heads, including the fold-down models that allow full truck bed use when the trailer is unhitched.
Fabricated from high-strength steel with a protective finish. At 33 lbs the bracket set is substantial -- built for long-term towing duty, not light-duty use.
B&W bracket systems are typically designed to use factory puck system holes or existing mounting provisions, avoiding permanent alterations to the truck bed.
B&W's fifth wheel hitch line is built around a modular concept: the hitch head (the Companion) mounts to a set of truck-specific brackets that anchor to the bed. The RVR2506 is the bracket component -- the interface layer between truck and hitch. Choosing the wrong bracket set, or a universal bracket that doesn't match your truck's rail spacing, leads to misalignment, vibration, and reduced rated capacity. The RVR2506 eliminates that risk by matching the exact geometry of the trucks it supports.
Trucks equipped with a factory puck system (GM models with the multipro/cargo management system, for example) use dedicated puck-style brackets. Other configurations use direct-to-bed-rail mounting. Confirm your truck's specific bed configuration before ordering to ensure the RVR2506 is the correct bracket set for your application.
B&W Hitches is based in Humboldt, Kansas, and has been manufacturing towing products in the USA for decades. The Companion fifth wheel hitch is their flagship RV product, known for its industry-first fold-down head that lets you use the full truck bed when the hitch is not in use. The RVR2506 bracket set is a support component within that lineup -- not sold as a standalone towing solution, but as the precision foundation that makes the Companion system work correctly on the specific trucks it is spec'd for.
B&W bracket installations are designed to be completed with basic hand tools, typically without drilling when the truck has compatible factory mounting provisions. General steps include:
The RVR2506 package includes the custom bracket rails and all associated mounting hardware required for installation on the supported truck applications. The B&W Companion hitch head is sold separately. A bed liner or truck bed mat is not included.
