Features to know about

No Drilling: Custom Brackets Cut Installation Time in Half

This kit uses custom brackets that line up with existing holes in the frame, so you don’t have to drill into anything. The brackets mount underneath and provide secure attachment points for the above-bed rails, giving a solid foundation without extra work. Since it skips the drilling step, installation goes twice as fast compared with universal bracket systems.

Solid Mounting Base: Above-Bed Rails for Your Fifth Wheel Hitch

The base rails sit right in the bed and give you the platform to mount your fifth-wheel trailer hitch. They fit cleanly and provide a sturdy connection between your truck and hitch, ready for towing. The rails have a durable carbide finish that looks good and stands up to regular use.

Flexible Hitch Options: Industry-Standard Rail Pattern

Even though this is a CURT kit, the rails use the standard industry pattern, so you’re not locked into a single brand. They work with above-bed fifth-wheel hitches from CURT, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reese, and Valley. That flexibility makes it easy to keep your current hitch or switch to another one later without changing the rails.

Video Transcript for All You Need to Know About the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the CURT Custom Fit fifth wheel installation kit with the dark gray base rails for your Chevrolet and GMC trucks. Now this is a custom-fit part. It is designed to fit the 2020 and newer Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500 and 3500 HD trucks without the OEM Prep package. And on a custom-fit part like this, I do recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, put in your year and model vehicle, and it'll show if this will work for your application. Now this kit is a complete installation kit.

It allows you to install a fifth wheel to your truck bed, and it will include everything shown here on the table. It includes these custom-fit mounting brackets on the side, the base rails right here, comes with all the hardware you need for installation, and a nice set of detailed instructions that'll describe how all this goes together. Now I wanted to zoom in on these custom-fit mounting brackets on the side here. These are designed to mount beneath your truck bed, and they provide the attachment points for your fifth wheel rails to attach to. These have a nice black powder coat finish on them to resist corrosion.

And what's nice is, these brackets provide a custom fit, because they're mounting to existing holes in your vehicle's frame. You can see the holes already in these brackets. They'll line up with the holes on your frame, so it minimizes the amount of drilling required, and it'll cut the installation time in half when compared with the universal bracket kits. Now the base rails right here, these are what'll sit in your truck bed. They allow the installation of your fifth wheel trailer hitch, and these rails are visible in your truck bed.

If you notice these have a nice dark gray finish to them, and that's to match the color of your CURT fifth wheel hitch. And these rails are industry standard rails which means they're compatible with the B&W, CURT, Draw-Tite, Reese, and Husky Above Bed fifth wheel trailer hitches. But that should do it for the review on the CURT Custom Fit fifth wheel installation kit with the dark gray base rails for your Chevrolet and GMC trucks.

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Rails for a Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Hitch in a 2024 Chevy Silverado 3500
    I would be happy to! To mount the Curt PowerRide item # C22ER in your 2024 Chevy Silverado 3500 you will need the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit item # C85BR. These rails have a higher capacity than the standard item # C16429-204 that fit your truck. They will work with other hitches but are designed specifically to work with the Curt PowerRide item # C22ER. To make towing with a 5th wheel trailer easier, I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/...
