Features to know about
Built to Pull Heavy 5th Wheels with Confidence: 25,000 lbs GTW and 6,250 lbs Vertical Load Limit
This hitch is built for the long haul with a 25,000 lbs gross towing weight rating and a 6,250 lbs vertical load limit. The heavy-duty steel construction and carbide powder coat finish give it the strength and durability needed for years of towing. Whether you’re pulling a large camper or toy hauler, it provides the solid connection and stability that make every trip feel steady and under control.
Quiet, Secure Connection Every Time: Interlocking 2-Jaw System with 360-Degree Contact
The interlocking, two-piece jaw design wraps completely around the king pin for 360-degree contact. That tight fit means less rattle and more security than slide-bar models. It keeps movement in check for a smoother, quieter ride and a more confident tow. The jaws also make hitching easier by guiding the pin into place without the clanking or guesswork that can come with looser designs.
Know Exactly When You’re Ready to Tow: Color-Coded 3-Point Indicator System
A quick glance tells you all you need to know before pulling out. The color-coded lock indicator shows red when uncoupled, yellow when ready to couple, and green when locked for towing. The indicators are visible from the cab, so you can confirm your hitch status without climbing into the bed. When you unhook, the handle resets on its own to the ready-to-couple position, saving time when you’re setting up again.
Smooth Hookups and Controlled Towing: Fully Articulating Torsion Head
The fully articulating torsion head helps control coupling and keeps road shock to a minimum. It self-aligns during hookup, suppresses bumps and noise, and provides a stable ride across changing road conditions. The built-in zerk fittings make lubrication simple so it keeps performing smoothly trip after trip.
Easy to Remove When You Need Bed Space: One-Pin Head Removal
When it’s time to clear your truck bed, the one-pin head removal lets one person take it off without extra tools. The included plastic lube plate helps the king pin glide smoothly into place during hookup, and when you’re done towing, breaking down the hitch is fast and straightforward. It’s a practical setup for anyone who wants solid towing strength but still needs room in the bed when not hauling.

- Color-coded lock indicator: 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).

Video Transcript for All You Need to Know About the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for Chevy/GMC
Hello everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for your Chevrolet and GMC trucks. Now this is a custom-fit part. It is designed to fit the 2011 to 2019 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500 and 3500 trucks with either the six and a half foot bed or the eight foot bed and without the OEM prep package. Now 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, model, vehicle.
It'll show if this will work for your application. Now these brackets here are designed to mount beneath your truck bed, and they provide the attachment points for your fifth-wheel rails to attach to. Now those base rails we do sell separate on our website. Does require the base rails, part number C16104, C16204, or C16205. Those rails will bolt to these mounting brackets.
Now these brackets here will provide a custom fit. They mount to existing holes that are in your vehicle's frame. You can see the holes right here in the sides. These holes will eliminate the need for drilling. Cuts the installation time in half when compared with universal bracket kits.
Now it does include all the necessary hardware to install this. Comes with a nice set of instructions that'll describe how it all goes together. And these parts have a nice black powder coat finish on to resist corrosion. And these brackets are designed to work with the industry-standard rails that are compatible with 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 Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for the Chevrolet and GMC trucks.

I feel that the installation video simplifies the process to much. Attaching the frame plates with the bolt fish wire was more difficult than the video showed. I am to blame for the first bolt. We started on the left side and fished the back bolt first. I did not check to see if the wire would go through both plate and bolt once threaded onto the bolt. I just placed the plate on the wire and then threaded the bolt onto the wire and pulled or tried to pull it through the frame hole. The wire was "bunched" on part of the bolt and would not feed through the frame and the plate holes. I stretched the wire to the point I thought I was going to lose the bolt in the frame. We ended up getting the bolt back out and using the other fish wire to feed this bolt through. We made sure we could fit both the plate and bolt through together before fishing it through the frame. Once we did one the other three went a lot easier but we only had one fish wire to use.
I had watched the installation video several times and played it while we were working. The video is good but it makes the process seem to easy.
I would like to see the video have more details about this process and have 4 fish wire instead of 2 or tell people you may want to have two more on hand for piece of mind.

Last summer I made purchase of the A16 sliding 5th wheel hitch along with rails.the install took about six hours working by myself .following the enclosed instructions is important and saves time if you do it exactly as shown.I was very pleased with the delivery,it was prompt and no charge.that was great.the hitch is a slider which I think is important on a shortbed,could save damage to truck during maneuvers.my experience with etrailer has been really good and would recommend this company to anybody shopping for trailering equipment

Excellent product, perfect fit for my vehicle, arrived a couple days before it was supposed to. I did not want an "aftermarket" look, which is why I ordered a kit designed specifically for my vehicle. I did take the time to remove the heat shield to gain better access to the installation bolts. The biggest challenge was installing and tightening the bolts that go through the bed; there is not a lot of room between the trucks frame and the bed of the truck. The most challenging bolts were the ones on the driver side closest to the cab of the truck due to the placement of the gas tank. Trailer wiring was plug-and-play, hardest part was drilling the 2" hole in the side of my truck bed.

This is the second one of these that I ordered from e trailer. The first one I got at the same time as the fifth wheel hitch. I install on my 2015 Silverado 2500HD. I traded that Silverado for a 2018 Silverado 3500 Z71. Kept the hitch had to leave the rails. Great product and not bad to install. Took about 2 hours. If I trade again, I will get third.

Whew! Installing that Rail kit about kicked my butt! The reason why is all the trips I made from underneath the truck and back. The Rail kit is a very high Quality Product from Curt that fits perfectly in the bed of my truck. The hardware is also high quality. One downside is there isn't a lot of room to work as the gas tank on one side and the exhaust on the other side prevents easy access (gas tank in particular). It was very hard to get a wrench on the nuts unless you used a Gearwrench. After the install they are torqued to 110 ft-lb. The only way to do that was to put a 1 inch adapter on the torque wrench then put that in the open end of the gearwrench in the adapter. Then using a formula on line, convert that to what you have to ft-lb. Anyway It was worth it because I know I have a good product that will stand the test of time.

Box was delivered with a little damage and the contents of the hardware bag was loose in the box. After going through the parts list and realizing I was missing 1 block, we contacted etrailer and they shipped the replacement part immediately, we got it within 3 or 4 days. Install was a breeze after watching the video and fishing the bolts and blocks in the frame. Only took a couple hours total.

Just installed my curt 5th wheel kit,all materials are heavy duty and comes with all hardware needed. Installation is straightforward for the average DIY . The only challenge in the installation of the kit is getting the right tool to torque the rail bolts. My truck is a 2013 chevy Silverado 2500HD. I would recommend this kit.

Ordering from etrailer was a great decision! I got a confirmation email for my order within minutes and an email it had shipped in just a few hours. I was given an expected delivery date and it actually showed up a day early. I’m super impressed with the customer service! I bought a fifth wheel hitch and found an [online] video for my truck and hitch that was extremely helpful, especially since all the RV dealers in the area were two months out to install it. All in all dealing with etrailer has been a great experience and I will definitely be going back for any of my other RV needs!

If you do this yourself, definitely remove the wheel well liners and remove 3 of the 4 bolts holding the heat shield with one loosened to move it out of the way. Top front four nuts are the hardest to get started from under the truck. Start to finish 3 hours. Saved myself $500 for install

I had originally ordered a 11604/11607 under bed gooseneck mount for my 2019 Silverado 2500HD, but found out during initial parts fitting that an under bed rib had been welded out of position on my truck, and the side rail brackets would not fit because of it. A phone call to Curt verified my finding and they suggested going to an in bed rail mount as an alternative. I called etrailer and spoke with Bailey B about my situation and she was very quick to understand what I needed to do. She helped me place an order for a 16411/16204 in bed rail mount kit. She then emailed me instructions and UPS shipping labels so I could return the parts I could not use. I received my new kit yesterday (one day early!!) and a quick look tells me I now have what I need. Bailey B was super helpful, and the exchange process was above and beyond my expectations. Count on me for future purchases. I had hand surgery a few days ago so it will be a while before I can install this hitch rail kit. If I can edit this review then, I'll add pictures. In the meantime, I'm going to have a spray in bed liner done and I'll be ready to go. Thanks again Bailey and etrailer!

Fantastic! I was able to install the entire kit by myself as soon as my hand allowed me to. Everything went together as it was supposed to. Ive only been able to tow my 5er a few times, but getting hitched up and unhitched is a breeze, even when the truck isnt straight on to the trailer. The hitch is totally silent, with no chucking at all. I was able to set it up so I had good cab clearance that I dont need to use the Turning Point feature on my pin box. I highly recommend this hitch.

I received the 2500HD custom fit rail kit and A16 slider hitch very quickly which was great because we were on a time crunch to pick up our new camper. I selected this hitch and rail combination after reading all of the positive reviews. A buddy and I installed it ourselves in a few hours and could not be more happy with the fitment. We used the installation video below the product description which really helped. Etrailer was great to work with and I would definitely order from them again. We will be picking up our fifth wheel this weekend and will comment on how well it performs!

Great product.. better than my previous install on a 2006 Silverado w/separate brackets for each bolt for the Rails.
This went in like a dream.. however, with that said... watching the video from etrailer on YT showing how to install this was extremely helpful... the "real life" install is no where near as easy as they show.
The fuel tank and the bottom of the bed allow for about 5" of room to get you hand, arm and the bolts installed on the bottom of the bolts that come down from the rails. Very difficult. The passenger side also has the exhaust and a shield to contend with. Removal of the shield is a must, however the tight area between the frame rail and the underside of the bed... again, only allows for minimal accessability for the bolts.
The only bolts that were able to be torqued were the bolts on the outside of the frame rails, otherwise all other bolts were only able to be torqued to grunt specs.
Took about 3hrs, however it is way easier drilling only the 8 holes through the bed floor than into the frame...
I would suggest re-tapping the threaded studs that are on the frame. I installed this on a 3 yrs old 2017, and I had a tap to do this. W/O the tap I think the bolts would not have gone in so easy AND they most likely would have been damaged from the rust and stuff laying in the holes.

Just a year now, and this hitch is still performing great. I really like the colored indicator in the front. I thought this would be a joke at first, but hey.. it really works. I find myself looking at the connection dot right before I put the truck in drive. If anything, its another way to double check Im hooked up correctly. Really like this 5th wheel hitch

My curt custom rail kit fit perfectly on my 2016 sierra 2500. I did have a hard time starting the nuts on the rail bolts due to the fact that they are positioned between the frame and the box. You can forget about getting a standard socket wrench on the bolts. The rails and brackets are heavy duty , overall a great product .

- Best Way to Install a Gooseneck Hitch in a Truck w/ 5th Wheel Rails Hey Rebecca. So long as you have a set of 5th wheel rails like item # C16411-204 installed in the bed of your new 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 2500, all you'll need is the Curt Above-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for Fifth Wheel Rails item # 16055. This will attach directly to those rails like your Reese 16K 5th wheel hitch. I have attached a picture below so you can see how the gooseneck plate looks when it gets setup. It has 3" of offset built into it for better turning clearance. You'll want...

Technically, the Curt Universal Fifth Wheel Base Rails with Installation Kit # C16200 will work with your 2012 Chevy Silverado, but being a universal kit, the installation is going to be a lot more involved than it needs to be. Instead, I recommend going with a custom-fit installation kit. If you have a Silverado 1500, you will want the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # C16400-204. If you have a...

The standard rails attach at the same locations as the gooseneck hitch brackets so individual options are not compatible. My recommendation is to use the Reese Elite Series Under-Bed Gooseneck Complete Hitch # RP30158-68 which will give you the underbed gooseneck hitch and the underbed rails with the pucks for a clean bed when not in use. Then you can use your current...

There is a bit to unpack here, but to start things off, I'm not seeing that a 2015 GMC Sierra 3500 would have had an OEM gooseneck receiver without the rest of the pucks, so I believe you have an aftermarket system. A single point attachment can't be used with an auto-sliding hitch like the Demco # DM8550034 because that feature will put too much torque on the single point and cause issues. The only way to use the Demco is if you install standard base...

We have what you are looking for with the Curt Universal Fifth Wheel Base Rails - Carbide Black Finish # C16204.

I should also note that Curt rails will only fit Curt brackets, so if you do have brackets and aren't sure what they are, definitely get the full kit. This does go for all manufacturers as...
view full answer... - Can Curt Fifth Wheel Rail Kit Work with Pullrite Superglide Fifth Wheel HitchIf the Pullrite Superglide is an ISR style fifth wheel hitch which is designed for the rails that the Curt kit part # C16411-204 provides this will work. But there are two types of rails Pullrite designs their hitches for with one of them being for standard rails like what the Curt provides and the other only fits their rail designs. The easy way to know is if the name of the hitch from Pullrite has "ISR" at the end of the name. Or you can get me the number of the hitch and I can verify.

- 2015 GMC Sierra 2500 5th Wheel Bracket Kit RecommendationHey Ritchie! It looks like the OEM puck systems started with the 2016 model year for the GM trucks so you'll need to reach out to a GM shop/dealer to see if they have OEM brackets available and if those will actually fit your 2015 GMC Sierra 2500. If you aren't able to get the brackets then I recommend installing the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # C16411-204 which gives you industry standard base rails. These are different from the puck system but if you let me know what 5th...

Plastic bed liners do not provide a stable surface which is why they have to be trimmed. All you will do is follow the instructions, linked for reference, to place the rails. Then trace around the rails, and then you can trim it with a rotary tool or similar. I recommend taking the liner out of the...

You will start by measuring the distance from the farthest back part of the bed, not including the tailgate, to the specific measurement for your truck and bed length to center the rear rail in your truck box (this will be in the installation instructions).

With the 5th wheel towing limit of 13,500, you will be below capacity, even with the camper fully loaded. A fifth wheel hitch like the Curt E16 # C16115 will have sufficient capacity to tow your camper. I will say that the E16 is more of a budget option, and if you plan to tow frequently I recommend upgrading to a Curt A16 hitch like the # C16120. This will have much smoother head rotation, and it...

Your Reese Elite Series Hitch (discontinued part 30143) has a height range of 14-1/2" - 17" and is only able to secure to the OEM puck system on your 2021 Ford F-450 Super Duty, so we either need to get you a taller hitch that mounts directly to the pucks or you can use the Curt Adapter Rails # C88KR with a different hitch to gain more height like what you said.

- How To Install a Curt A25 5TH Wheel Hitch In a 2024 Ram 2500 With Factory Prep/Puck SystemYou have a couple options for installing the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16180 in the bed of your 2024 Ram 2500 with the factory in bed hitch system. First we have the Adapter Rails # C29BR which fit into the pucks and give you the ISR mounting points. Do note this will raise the hitch 2" so you will likely need to lower the height of the hitch.

You don't need a sliding hitch with an 8' bed since the bed is long enough. This hitch will just drop into any standard set of 5th wheel rails, and will be ready to roll. What kind of dimensions do you need? I can tell you this hitch has a 22" x 29" footprint, but if you're looking for something else, let me know!

These hitches are made in the USA, have a 25,000 lb capacity, and will drop right into the OEM pucks on your Ford. If you have regular ISR rails you can use # BWRVK3200 which has only a 16K capacity but its still made by B&W, or you can use the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16180 which has the 25K capacity you're looking for, but it isn't made by B&W.

For a hitch though, you are going to need to use a sliding hitch like the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R24 Slider # C16566, but if you have a long bed you can use a fixed hitch like # C16180.

view full answer... - How to Select Hitch Height Setting for Curt A25 Fifth Wheel HitchHey Mark, it really comes down to what's going to allow your trailer to sit level with at least 4-6 inches of bed rail to trailer overhang clearance. Since the A20 and the A25 are very similar I would assume you'd want to use the same set of mounting holes on the A25 as the old hitch as long as the trailer was being towed level. But you should verify after that point if your trailer is able to be towed level.

After a year and around 7,000 miles pulling our fifth wheel camper, I love the hitch. I have not had to use the sliding portion but glad we have it if we need it
