This Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch brings solid confidence when you’re towing big fifth wheels. With a 20,000-lb gross towing weight and a 5,000-lb vertical load rating, it’s ready for the kind of long hauls and heavy loads that challenge lesser hitches. The sturdy steel construction and carbide powder coat finish hold up over bumps, weather, and miles. It’s a hitch that feels planted when you tow, keeping your trailer stable and secure from city streets to cross-country runs.
The A20’s interlocking two-jaw system wraps completely around the king pin for full 360-degree contact. That tighter fit means less movement, less rattle, and a smoother ride compared to slide-bar designs. You’ll feel the difference when you accelerate or brake—no clunking or jerking between truck and trailer. It’s a straightforward design that inspires confidence every time you back in and lock down.

Hooking up is simpler with Curt’s color-coded indicator that tells you exactly what position the jaws are in: red for uncoupled, yellow for ready to couple, and green for tow. The indicators are visible from both the handle and hitch head, so you can confirm your connection at a glance before hitting the road. The handle also locks for added security and automatically resets to the ready position after uncoupling, making re-hooking fast and easy next time out.

A fully articulating torsion head helps absorb road shock and reduces towing noise so the ride feels more controlled and quiet. It self-aligns during hookup to make connecting simpler, even if ground or trailer angles aren’t perfectly level. Every pivot works together to keep chucking to a minimum, helping your truck and trailer stay steady mile after mile.
When it’s time to reclaim your bed space, the Curt A20 breaks down without fuss. A single pin lets you lift off the heavy head so you can manage each piece separately—roughly 100 lbs for the head and 37 lbs for the legs. Built-in zerk fittings simplify lubrication between trips, and an included plastic lube plate keeps hitching smooth every time you back under your trailer.

Sorry to hear about the damage and difficulties, Jeff. The handle will get easier to actuate with use as they can be on the stiff side when new. I don't recommend beating it with anything as that will probably damage the mechanism. So don't do that. Are those B&W rails in your bed? And what do you carry in your toy hauler?

10,000 miles and a year later the hitch has been working fine.

Still have not heard from your customer service on why it so difficult to separate the two sections of my hitch.
