Question:
Hi,My name is Mike Waters I have a 2020 Ram 1500 eco diesel Crew Cab, 6.5 cargo bed, with a Curt A16 slider hitch. Will the Crosswing Hitch fit on my Rail attachment already installed in my bed for my A16? Thank you

Hey Mike Waters, thanks for reaching out!
Yes, the Curt CrossWing # C86JR is designed to fit the same industry standard rail dimensions that your Curt A16 fits.
Just note that this hitch doesn't have the sliding feature so you may run into some clearance issues when turning since your 2020 Ram 1500 is a short bed truck.

Never had to use the slider. The clearance is just enough to make sharp turns without making any adjustments with the hitch. Will I get that same clearance when switching to the crosswing?
