Features to know about

Built for Heavy 5th Wheel Loads: 20,000 lbs GTW and 5,000 lbs Vertical Load Limit

This hitch is made for serious towing with its 20,000-lb gross towing weight and 5,000-lb vertical load limit. The sturdy steel construction and carbide powder coat finish give it the strength and durability needed for long hauls. It’s a solid base for towing heavy campers or haulers with confidence every time you hook up.

Locked-In Stability and a Quieter Ride: Interlocking Dual Jaws with 360-Degree Contact

The rounded two-piece, interlocking jaw design wraps completely around the king pin for secure 360-degree contact. That tight fit cuts down on rattling and movement compared to slide-bar hitches, giving you a quieter, more stable ride. The fully articulating torsion head also helps absorb road shock and makes coupling feel smooth and controlled.

Know You’re Ready to Tow: Three-Point Color-Coded Indicator System

Keeping track of your hitch position is simple thanks to Curt’s color-coded lock indicator. A quick look shows you if the hitch is ready to uncouple (red), couple (yellow), or tow (green). The indicator can be seen from the cab or at the hitch itself, so you always know the jaws are set right before pulling out.

Smooth Turning in Tight Spots: Non-Binding S20 Slider with 12" Travel

The integrated S20 slider gives you 12" of front-to-back travel to create extra clearance when making slow, tight turns. It automatically latches in both directions and moves easily without binding, helping prevent contact between truck and trailer at sharp angles. Built-in zerk fittings make it easy to keep lubricated for consistent performance.

Easy Removal When You Need Your Bed Clear: Fast 1-Pin Head Removal

When it’s time to clear the bed, the A20’s head lifts off with a single pin—simple enough for one person to handle. The included adapter rails drop right into the factory puck receivers for quick pin-in setup. It’s a straightforward design that makes switching between towing duty and bed space fast and hassle-free.

Heavy-duty 5th-wheel trailer hitch has interlocking jaws, a torsion head, and a color-coded lock indicator for safety and security. Non-binding slider ensures proper clearance during slow turns. OEM adapter rails included.

by: Wayne03/21/2026

The adapter rails are heavy and very sturdy. Came with puck mounts already assembled,just had to attach the cross members. Only one puck mount needed adjustment. I haven't installed the 5th wheel hitch yet if it fits without any issues I'd give it 5 stars.



by: Paul04/16/2025

Had to replace my vehicle while on vacation. 2020 puck system was different than the 2025 puck system so I had to order a new base. Ordered the new base on a Friday and it was delivered the following Monday. Jacob was extremely helpful throughout the whole process. Package while extremely heavy arrived intact. Bolted rails together. Specs very tight on the 4 pins that hold the base to the hitch. Needed a little coaxing to get it pinned. Definitely a two person job. Would use e-trailers again in the future. Thank you for your speedy service.



by: Tony09/16/2026

Great product, well made and easy insta llation.

Very nice product. Arrived ahead of schedule. Very easy to put together. Took us a little longer to put it together only because we read and reread the instructions to make sure we had everything right the first time. We did struggle with getting the height right with doing the math so we hooked the truck to the camper and got the height that way. If I knew when I ordered, I probably would not have gone with a slider because there’s still plenty of room to the cab and if you have a similar truck that I have, 2025 GMC Sierra 2500 HD crew cab short box, and you have a hard tri fold tonneau cover, you will have to take the cover off because when folded it hits the front of the pin box of the camper. I have a Moryde pin box. That really is the only down fall that I had. Noah was very good about helping find me a fifth wheel that was going to work for me in short notice. Highly recommend etrailer and Noah.



by: Todd03/09/2025

The adapter came packaged very well. The box looked ruff and I was concerned but when opened everything was good. Very easy installation.



by: Mark04/11/2026

It was a good price, fast delivery, easy to assemble & install in my truck. It matches with my Reese 16K 5th wheel hitch. I have not towed my camper with it yet but I do not foresee any problems with it.



by: Larrys03/31/2023

Like some other posts, followed instructions to the letter and hitch would not drop into rails. Loosened all the rails bolts, mounted hitch, and re-torqued everything. Puck mounting brackets were just off square a bit and twisted the rails when first installed. Either square ‘em up or alter instructions so it goes in first time. Installed in a 2022 Silverado 2500 6’10” bed. Loved the plan, set the rails first time in a few minutes (instead of waiting in a shop for four hours while someone else did the boring and cutting and such). Hitch has been in two other trucks with conventional rails and always fit. Coulda been a five star, but I am familiar with Curt and feel sure they will get it right.



by: Scott 01/31/2025

Cammi, my customer support person was awesome. I told her what I needed and she recommended to perfect hitch. I was impressed with her knowledge of their products and how fast it was delivered. Installation was simple as long as you follow the very well written directions.

My hitch is working great still. Easy to use no issues.

It is great thanks to etrailer for the help and I want to send a special thank you to Melissa for her help in selecting the right item for my truck



by: Roy03/17/2026

With new trucks prepped for fifth wheel and goose neck hitch mounts, this made it easy for me to use my old hitch in my new truck. It did add about 1 1/2” to the height of the hitch so I had to move my trailer hitch so the trailer runs level.



by: Don 12/30/2024

This adapter worked perfectly for my 2025 Sierra 3500 puck system. It went together in about 15 minutes and was a perfect fit with my Reese hitch. Also, Paul at Etrailer was great to work with and he made sure I ordered the right part.



by: Mark05/15/2025

Easy to order, etrailer rep answered all of me questions, prompt delivery, very easy to assemble and install in truck. A great purchase.



by: Robert08/08/2026

This product is great. It was well packaged and very easy to install. I have a Pull Rite super glide hitch that fit perfectly.



by: Brian03/12/2024

Assembly and setup was super easy and quick. Seems super stout. I was worried the added 2 1/2 inches of height added by this would require some adjustments to the pin box. However once hooking up my trailer, no adjustments were necessary. Trailer is almost spot on level, and I am still maintaining 6.5-7 inches of bed side clearance to the trailer.



by: Jeremiah09/22/2026

Fits good works good fast shipping. Weight rated for much more than my hitch or truck needs to be latched onto



by:

The easy of assembly, into my Chevy 3500HD. From the CURT base unit with the OEM puck system, to adding the S20 slider onto the base, and finally adding the A20 head on the system to haul my new 2026 Valor 37v11.



by: John08/17/2026

The Tech (Mike) that helped me identify the product I needed was very good to work with and communicated well. The person (Amy) who took my also was very good to work with and communicated well. The product arrived timely on the day it was committed for. The product was packaged well and did not have a damage, the installation directions were clear so installation was very smooth. The product is well made, heavy duty and fit as it should. I highly recommend etrailer and Curt products for any trailer needs.



by: Harvey04/08/2025

I previously owned the Curt A16. We needed a larger tow capacity so we purchased the A20 and decided to buy the S20 slider base as well. Too many sharp turning issues with our 6’8” Chevy standard bed HD3500 during maneuvering. The S20 slider should eliminate this issue. Also I love the design of both the A20 and S20.

This rail adapter work like i wanted it to. Saved us from having to purchase a New 5th hitch



by: Richard03/11/2026

Install was easy but you need a 2lb hammer help with the Install, I really liked that it raised my 5th wheel higher in my truck bed



by: Robert08/29/2026

The OE Puck Adapter 25K was easy to install. I put a little grease on the parts (6 and 5 on the instructions) - thought it would make it easier to rotate the locking handles into place. I have a "long handle" torque wrench so torquing the carriage bolt nuts to 125 ft lbs was no problem. I installed a Husky 16K S fifth wheel hitch installation onto the adapter. I still need to check the fifth wheel and truck bed clearance and adjust the height of the hitch as needed.



by: drag10/07/2026

Product is a perfect fit for my 2023 2500HD PUCK system! Easy install. Packaging was superb. I had an old Reese hitch that plugged right into the new Curt rails. Very happy with this purchase and support from Etrailer



by: Richard09/24/2026

Easy to install. Less than an hour. Curt Q20 slipped right in and it is still below the bed top. Others talk about a height problem. I had airbags on my f250 that i would inflate to bring UP my back end. I dont think this is an issue.



by: Gary08/22/2024

Purchased a 2024 Silverado 3500 set up for 5th wheel with the PUCK connections. My previous truck had ISR rails and the PullRite SuperGlide 5th wheel hitch. The Curt adaptor is the perfect solution to avoid buying a whole new hitch.
The package arrived in good condition and on time. Upon opening the box I was extremely surprised how well it was packed, each corner had a metal bracket, there was a piece of plywood on the bottom and top and foam separating the parts.
The install was fairly easy, read the instructions, Chevy is one way, Ford another. The PUCK locking mechanism make a nice tight connection with very little adjustment needed. The rails fit in nicely and the bolts went in well, torqued as required.
I have not yet attached the PullRite hitch but if it fit the Curt ISR rails on the previous truck it should fit this one. With the Chevy 2500 I had, between the squat and ISR rail setup the 5th wheel was slightly lower in the front. With this Chevy 3500 suspension and the adaptor being about 2" higher I expect the camper to be level or slightly higher in front which works.
Very nice adaptor if you have the need, better than changing out a perfectly good hitch.



by: Greg08/26/2026

Adapter rails are heavy duty, easy to install and were a perfect fit for the puck system on my 2026 GMC. My Husky hitch fit perfectly into the rails. Our first trip towing with this setup went great!

  • Is The B&W Patriot W/ Slider Base Compatible With The Curt Adapter Rails # C88KR (16027)
    Hey Ronnie, The crossbeam of the slider base on the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3270 unfortunately sits too low and fights for the same space as the handles/side mounting plates of the Curt Rail Adapter # C88KR (16027) so they would not be compatible together. The Patriot slider unfortunately isn't compatible with any puck-to-rail adapter on the market currently. You would need to switch to the Companion OEM # BWRVK3775 which would have the correct mounting points...

    Hey Steve, so between the Curt # C16265 and the PullRite # PUL36ZR I'd go wit the Curt but not the Q25. I'd go with the A25 # C24FR, which is basically the same thing as the Q25 but does not require the # C88KR adapter. Only the Curt is going to work out of the box with rotating pin boxes so the PullRite would need a wedge like # RP99FR or # MR74ZR to work with a rotating pin box, but you'd have to let me know what rotating pin box you have to get you the correct wedge.

    Hello Kevin, thanks for reaching out. So, there are rail adapters that will fit into the puck system in your 2022 Ford F-450. The problem is that none of them will work with the B&W Patriot slider. For example we have the Curt Adapter Rails # C88KR which fits into the Ford puck system, but the placement of the turn handles and the crossmember connecting both rails obstructs the Patriot slider, so they will not work together.

  • Will a B&W Companion Slider Work w/ a Round Gooseneck Hitch?
    No, David I am sorry there is not. It sounds like you're describing a standard gooseneck hitch. The B&W Companion Slider item # BWRVK3400-5W can only be used with the Turnoverball system or have the base swapped out to fit in the factory puck systems with item # BWRVB3670. This base fits the Ram OEM puck system that has four mounting holes in the truck bed. The only solution I would potentially have is going to depend on what kind of gooseneck hitch your Ram truck has. If you could get...

  • Is Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch Needed For 2021 Ram 2500 6-1/2 Foot Bed & Puck System
    Hi Nic, Generally yes, for a truck bed under 8 feet long like on your 2021 Ram 2500 you do need a sliding 5th wheel hitch. That said, there are 5th wheel trailers that have a tapered nose designed to allow the use of fixed 5th wheel hitches as they won't contact the cab on right turns, so if that's the type of trailer you have, then a sliding hitch isn't needed. With that in mind, the hitch I love for your 2021 Ram 2500 with the puck system is the Curt A20 due to its ease of use and...

    Hi Ward! The hitch included in the Curt A20 5th Wheel Hitch w/ S20 Slider for Ford and Chevy/GMC Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20K # C58ZJ will fit standard rails, but this kit also includes an adapter that will allow it to fit Ford and Chevy/GMC pucks (the # C88KR).

  • Lighter Weight Slider Fifth Wheel Hitch Solution for 2024 Chevy Silverado 3500 Short Bed
    Hey Douglas, the Curt A20 with slider part # C55DR weighs 211 ls and the GM adapter part # C88KR weighs 88 lb. The B and W Companion Slider part # BWRVK3775 weighs 250 lbs so it weighs a little less in total. The head of this comes off pretty easy too to save weight by making a couple trips to split up the weight. The head weighs 70 lbs. Based on this it would be the easier to install and remove solution.

  • Curt A20 Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch or Convert-A-Ball Adapter For Height
    Hi Tony; that's a good question and unequivocally the better option is the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C55DR. This will not only give you extra height, but won't void the warranty on your trailer frame like the Convert-A-Ball adapter does, gives you better turning clearance, and is just a more secure overall set up than what is essentially two different adapters. The # C55DR is also just a really good hitch overall with a superb interlocking jaw system for a tight...

However, if you aren't 100% set on the A20, and you don't need that 20k capacity, I would consider a different hitch.

  • Recommended Curt Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2015 Toyota Tundra
    Hey Ron, great question. So basically unless you have a puck system in your bed which it sounds like you don't, you're going to want to steer clear of those style hitches because those are not going to work with regular 5th wheel rails. For regular rails, I'd recommend going with the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C55DR instead. This hitch is identical to the Q20, has the same weight ratings, and has an adjustable hitch height of 17-1/2" - 21-1/2".

  • How Can I Get My Pin Box Higher and My 5th Wheel Hitch Lower so I Can Have Level Towing?
    Hello Mike, Let’s get you level so your towing experience can be much more enjoyable. Since you have the Curt A20 slider, it’s important to note that it should not be used in combination with the Reese Revolution. You want either a sliding hitch or a rotating pin box, not both, as combining them can create unsafe towing conditions. You're on the right track with the Curt Flex Air 5th Wheel Pin Box - Lippert 1621 - 18,000 lbs # LC328492. Replacing your Revolution with the Curt will likely...

    Hey Heath, thanks for reaching out! The Curt A20 # C55DR and the B&W Companion # BWRVK3670 you're looking at are both excellent 5th wheel hitches, but I have to go with the Companion in this case simple because it is more robust and has a better build quality. It's true that the Companion uses dual jaws, but those guys are 1" thick jaws so they will still hold the king pin nice and securely. The Curt has the interlocking jaws (which I really like) but it just doesn't have the same quality. Please...

  • Options For Installing 5th Wheel Hitch In 2019 Ram 3500 without OEM Puck System
    They do not make an aftermarket puck system kit for your 2019 Ram 3500, so you have a few options to get a 5th wheel hitch installed. The standard way is installing above bed rails # C16430-204 to use a sliding 5th wheel hitch # C55DR if you have a 6-1/2' bed, or a fixed 5th wheel hitch # C16140 if you have an 8' bed. If having the permanently installed above bed rails is a buzz kill for you, then another option is installing the B&W Turnoverball # BWGNRK1320-5W will allow you to install...

    The exact part that you need to use your Curt sliding 5th wheel hitch, like part # C55DR, in the short bed of your 2019 Ford F-250 depends on if you have the OEM prep package or not. If you do have the OEM prep package then you simply need the Elite Series Underbed Rail Adapter # RP30156 which drops into your puck system. If you don't have the OEM prep package you need a base rail kit like part # RP50074-58 which doesn't require drilling for the install. Both of these options give you...

  • Tips for Choosing the Best Truck to Tow a 5th Wheel Trailer
    Starting with the truck series itself, I would go with a 3/4 ton or 1 ton. Ultimately a 1-ton would be better. Between gas and diesel I would choose a diesel if it were me. They are capable of more power and torque than gas motors. The cab style does not matter all that much but the bed size does. You will want to avoid a step side bed and a Dodge model that has a Rambox feature because they cannot have a 5th wheel hitch installed. Long beds are the way to go. A short bed can cause issues...
