Sure, you can leave it in the truck bed. Exposed to the weather, not being used, in the way of other loads.
I hang mine from the 5th wheel king pin. Put it back in the truck in the spring.
This is just my T/V have another truck if I need to haul something was just trying to figure out what others did with the hitch for the winter not looming for advice on how to haul something else.......but thanks

I find it interesting that B&W makes a device that is used to remove a 5th wheel hitch that takes the place of the king pin.

You have to be careful doing this with certain hitches. On the PullRite hitches, the latch arm under the fifth wheel plate can be damaged if too much upward force is applied by the king pin. On many other hitches it's no problem.

If hanging the hitch from the king pin damages it, then that hitch should never be used for towing.
