    All three are good hitches and have a fan following. If one has features you like better than the others, go with it. We use a PullRite OE series 18K for the Ford puck system and are very happy with it.

    B&W Companion is what we use. My truck didn't come with the puck system so I opted for the turnover g/n system and Companion fifth wheel mount. Easy in and easy out. Rock solid setup. The cool thing you get to enjoy is a higher hitch rating at 25k with the pucks whereas I'm "limited" to 20k.

    Another vote for the B&W Companion for the puck system. I've used it with two different 5th wheels now and couldn't be happier. Smooth quiet and easy to remove in two pieces. Built like a tank too. Click image for larger version.

    While none of those choices would be a bad choice, I would recommend the B&W Companion. First, the thing is built like a tank, very strong. The jaws are machined as a matched set and are thicker than most. They are very tight and quiet. I also like that the jaws close via a cam mechanism. They don't rely on springs to close and latch the jaws. If the handle has swung closed, the jaws are locked with no guess work. Just install the pin or padlock and you're done.

    I am assuming your pullrite auto slide is a bed rail hitch. There are several puck to bed rail adapters out there, so double check. Ill bet you can still use your existing hitch - you just need the bed rail adapter thay fits your puck system. Give pullrite a call.

    I've been very happy with the B&W that I put in the F450. It's built extremely well and easily comes out within 5min (2-pc).
