I have a 16K Reese Slider hitch. I took the Reese head to a shop that installs hitches and they told me that it could cost about $300 to repair the head. One of the jaws moves a significant amount because one of the bars is bent. Because of the repair cost I feel it would be better to buy a new head. After reading a few posts it sounds like a number of MOC members like B&W better than Reese. I'm not totally happy with the
Reese hitch, so if it is workable I woul like to try a B&W hitch head. Has anyone done anything like this and if so does it work well?

Pls advise
