Secure, Two-Piece Jaw

Q24 Two-Piece Jaw

Unlike slide-bar models, the rounded, two-piece jaw on this fifth-wheel trailer hitch inhibits rattle and movement by securely wrapping around your trailer's king pin, resulting in easier hookup and a safer, quieter ride.


Three-Point Indicator System

Get peace of mind with Curt's color-coded lock indicator. Just look at the indicator - either the one on the handle or the one on the hitch itself - to determine whether the jaw is in the correct position to uncouple (red), couple (yellow) or tow (green).


Q24 Color Indicator System

360-Degree Pivot

Curt's unique spherical axial bearing provides a durable pivot point that allows easy, 360-degree movement of the hitch head. This ball joint is designed for smooth, quiet operation with less clunking and chucking.

Video Transcript for What to Know About the Curt Universal Fifth Wheel Base Rails

Hello, everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the CURT Universal Carbide Black Finish Fifth Wheel Base Rails. Now, these base rails will install in your truck bed. And they provide the necessary attachment points for your fifth wheel hitch installation. Now, when these rails are used with the CURT's Custom Mounting Brackets, which we sell separate on a website, these rails will cut in half the time it takes to install your fifth wheel trailer hitch.

We mentioned the finish on this. I'm gonna zoom in and sort of show it. It's a carbide black finish, sort of like a matte black finish, so it matches the finish if you use it on the CURT Q5 20K Fifth Wheel Hitch. Now, these rails are universal, so they will work with the following fifth wheel hitches. They work with the CURT brand, the Draw-Tite, the Hidden Hitch, the Reese, and even the Husky.

This part here will include the two base rails. Now, we mentioned the mounting brackets, the custom mounting brackets, the hardware, and an installation kit is all sold separately. The length on these rails, if we put a tape measure on them from one end to the other, right at 43 inches long. But that should do it for the review on the CURT Universal Carbide Black Finish Fifth Wheel Base Rails.

  • Recommended Custom Bracket Kit, Base Rails and 5th Wheel Hitch for 2007 Ford F-250
    I do have a solution for you, but we do strongly advise not mixing brackets and rails from 2 different manufacturers. The reason for this is that they haven't been tested together, so compatibility and fit cannot be guaranteed and the capacity of the setup will be unknown. With that said I recommend using the Curt # C16448-204 base rail and bracket kit which will provide you with a set of industry standard base rails to mount a 5th wheel hitch in. These are a custom bracket kit so it'll...

  • Does Curt A25 Fifth Wheel Hitch Ride in the Center of the Rails on a 2008 Ford F-250 or F-350?
    Yes, the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16180 will sit in the center of the rails. If you take a look at the diagram I've added you can see where you would need to install the Curt Brackets and Base Rails # C16448-204 on your 2008 Ford F-250 or F-350 and where the center line of the hitch is in relation to the brackets.

  • Can Demco FWH24PA 5th Wheel Hitch Be Cut and Welded to Fit ISR Base Rails on 2008 F-350
    Your Demco FWH24PA 5th wheel hitch is an older model that required specialized rails to be installed on the tow vehicle. Unfortunately these rails aren't made anymore and I can't recommend cutting and re-welding the tabs on your 5th wheel hitch to align with industry standard rails as that introduces an unknown variable in the weight capacity. For a setup that works with your 2008 Ford F-350 Super Duty I recommend the following: - Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # C16448-204 ...

  • 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Installation Kit for a 2009 Ford F-250 Short Bed
    Reese custom installation kit # RP56005-53 for your 2009 Ford F-250 short bed uses different rails and brackets like you said. They are longer so that the frame brackets all install on the outboard sides of the frame making it much easier to install which takes less time. This is the kit I would go with if I was putting one in a truck.

    Depending on what mounts were used to attach to your frame you are going to need either the Curt Universal Rail Kit # C16200 or Curt Custom Fit Rail Kit # C16448-204. The custom fit rail kit uses mounting holes in the frame with custom brackets to connect the above bed rails.

The slider hitches that offer the most travel are the Demco HiJacker auto-sliders, # DM8550022 for below the bed rail kit # DM8551000, or # DM8550034 for above the bed rail kit # DM8552002-71.

  • Differences Between Above and Under Bed Fifth Wheel Hitch Mounts for 2020 Ford F350

Brackets are mounted to the truck frame with the bed rails sitting directly above. Holes are drilled down through the truck bed to correspond with holes in the brackets bolted to the frame, allowing the bed rails to be securely bolted down. The rails have slots in them that allow the hitch to be installed and removed pretty conveniently. The problem here is that once the...

  • Can a 20K 5th Wheel Hitch be Used to Tow a 20K Toy Hauler
    Great question! Although a 5th wheel hitch rated for 20K can tow up to 20K we highly recommend using a 5th wheel hitch that is rated about 1K - 2K over the GVWR of your 5th wheel trailer. This gives you a safety margin and will help keep your hitch from prematurely wearing down from normal use. The only time you would be able to safely use the 20K hitch is if you didn't load your trailer up to the 20K capacity. If your toy hauler is 20K then I recommend going with either the B&W Companion...

Curt is one of the hitches that uses legs compatible with the different pucks, so I will give you both options. For a Ram, you will use Reese adapter # RP30154 or Demco # DM6099.

The differences are most obvious in the vertical load limit and the gross towing weight ratings. I reached out to my contact at Curt and the jaws are identical so the differences are in other metals being a slightly thicker gauge and the leg design. My contact said they are basically the same in the hitch head except for the slightly thicker gauge metal on the Q25 head.

  • Troubleshooting Stuck Jaws on Curt Q25 5th Wheel Hitch
    Thank you for all of the information regarding your Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16265 being stuck on your 5th wheel trailer. It sounds like you've got 2 things going on here; the first is that the jaws are binding, and the second is that the orbital pad has been broken.

The only way to remedy this is to either hook your truck...

  • Will Curt Q Series 5th Wheel Hitches Work with a MORryde Pin Box
    It looks like you're asking if the Curt Q series fifth wheel hitches are compatible with your MORryde pin box. Yes, hitches like the Curt Q25 # C16265 will work with a MORryde. This is the 25,000 pound hitch that fits into industry standard rails. If you can tell me the year, make, model, and bed length of your truck I can help you find the correct hitch and install kit that fits. Or if you have the factory prep package we may have a hitch that fits without an install kit.

  • Size of Replacement O-Ring for Bearing Shaft of Curt C16265 Q25 5th Wheel Hitch
    On the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch, # C16265 and previous question that references O-ring size. The needed diameter is 31.5 mm, for thickness, an O-ring of about 2 or 3mm is sufficient. Its exact thickness is not crucial as it is not required for creating a seal but rather in place for purpose of creating a stop location. Within the "INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS" for the Q25 (current online copy is linked below) page 6 in text under figure 9, it states "...The O-ring retainer stop...

  • Comparing the Curt Q25 to the Curt A25 5th Wheel Hitch
    The Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 25,000 lbs # C16180 is the newer model of the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 25,000 lbs # C16265.

It also has a 1 pin head removal compared to the 2 pin option of the Q25. They are both nice 5th wheel hitches, but the A25 has those couple of really nice features as an upgrade....

  • Option for Raising Nose of Momentum 3975 Wheel Trailer Towed by 2019 Ford F-350
    4 inches of clearance between the bed rails of your truck and the overhang of the 2020 Momentum 397 is the very minimum amount of clearance most refer to as safe. So strictly in that regard you aren't in a terrible position. That said, 6 inches is a much more ideal amount of clearance to have and it looks like your trailer might be a little nose low so it could stand to be raised in the front. Since pin box replacements aren't really designed for offering varying height setting you'd...

    We do have a Curt 5th wheel installation kit that will fit your 2013 Ford F-350 long bed but # C16448-104 is designed for older models and will not fit your truck.

  • How Much Does Curt Q25 5th Wheel Hitch for GM 5th Wheel Prep Package Weigh
    Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16069 has a shipping weight of 205 pounds. This hitch is designed to fit directly in the factory 5th wheel prep package on 2016 to 2018 GMC/Chevy 2500 and 3500 trucks with 8 foot beds so no additional rails are needed for those trucks.
