A20 Two-Piece Interlocking JawA20 Two-Piece Interlocking Jaw

Unlike slide-bar models, the rounded, interlocking, 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).

Video Transcript for Checking Out the Curt Q20 5th Wheel Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at this Curt 5th Wheel Adapter Rails for your Chevrolet and GMC trucks that have the factory 5th wheel prep package. Now, this is a custom fit part, it is designed to fit the 2016 to 2019 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500 and 3500 trucks with the OEM prep package, and on a custom fit part like this, I do like to recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, put in your year and model vehicle, and it'll show you if this will work for your application. Now, this will let you easily transfer your existing 5th wheel hitch from a previous truck to the new factory underbed puck equip trucks. This will convert the factory underbed system to the standard 5th wheel base rails. Now, they do use a quarter-turn anchoring system for quick installation and removal, wanna zoom in to show you a close up of that.

We're just gonna do one corner, but you'll do this at each corner, there's four corners. But basically, when you go to install this, what you'll do is pop off this clip, and then you'll rotate this handle out a quarter of a turn, and when you do that, if you noticed right down here, this tab is rotating also, so that'll open it up. You'll do that at each corner, and now, you're ready to drop this whole system right into the underbed factory system. Once you drop it in, the tabs will drop into place, you'll rotate this handle back just like that, and it rotates that tab to lock it in, and again, you'll do it at all four corners. Once you get it locked in, put your pin and clip back in, and that locks the handle in place, you're all ready to go.

You can also adjust the anchors right here, these can be adjusted to help eliminate any chucking between the legs and the underbed platform, right here you can put a wrench in here, there's a cotter pin that you can pull out, put a wrench in here, and tighten it up or loosen it, whatever you need to. Now, this does also include the four pins and clips that'll allow you to secure the 5th wheel to these adapter rails. Again, the specs on this, it is designed to fit the Chevrolet and GMC trucks with the 5th wheel prep package, capacity on this is 30,000 pounds gross towing weight capacity, and it has a 7,500 pound vertical load limit. But that should do it for the review on this Curt 5th Wheel Adapter Rails for the Chevrolet and GMC trucks with the factory 5th wheel prep package..

Tow up to 25,000 lbs with this heavy-duty fifth-wheel trailer hitch. Interlocking jaws and a color-coded lock indicator provide safety. Torsion head offers easy hookup and quiet, stable towing. OEM adapter rails included.

by:

The product worked just like it was suppose to. The only problem I had is when I took off from a stop there was a looseness. I could not tell if it was from the 5th wheel or the puck adapter. I will have to research it more.



by:

Ive been using this fifth wheel set up for about 5 months now and I don't have any complaints. I pull a 2022 Heartland Cyclone 4006 toyhauler fifth wheel. Loaded down its usually weighing between 18 to 20,000 lbs depending on what we are hauling.



by:

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!



by:

Easy to order from etrailer with fast shipping. Ordered on Mon estimated delivery on Fri but came in only 2 days for a deliver Wed. Curt A25 hitch packaged very well good instruction easy assembly on tailgate filling installed and torqued in less that 30 mins.



by:

The hitch has worked well for us . I wish it would go up 2 inches higher as it is close to the box have not had any problems though



by:

It is well built. Directions could have better illustrations. Putting handle together was the most difficult part of process. It dropped right into my existing rails. Have not hooked my fifth wheel yet, but very satisfied with the finished product.



by:

Very easy to install Alex at etrailer is too notch



by:

I could not be happier. It's solid, no sway while towing and no banging when I hit the brakes. Great product and I would highly recommend it!



by:

The hitch arrived as promised and in perfect condition. Couldn’t ask for better customer service. Looking forward to towing with the Curt A25.
I’ll amend this review after I tire with it. Super happy with etrailer!!

Packing was horrible. Smaller box inside a bigger box just bouncing around that created a big hole. All the bolts and nuts came free from packaging and were all over. Not to mention the ones that got lost.



by:

It was poor delivered and packaged. I don’t even know if all the parts are in there yet till tomorrow. There was a huge hole delivered and they even tried to patch up the box. SMH



by:

I have pulled a 16,000 lbs 5th wheel over 13,000 miles with this hitch and no issues. It arrived with the package damaged and the handle bent. Etrailer quickly replaced the part. The base will rust if not covered. If you remain hooked up for an over night stay, you will need to lower your jacks to stabilize and prevent rocking do to the hitch’s design. Great product.



by:

Took me a month, but I finally got the Curt A25 fifth wheel hitch in my truck and took it for nearly 150 mile trip to see how it would work. My wife and I both were amazed at how quiet and the bouncing, snapping, popping and cussing were all gone. This hitch is absolutely amazing. Before, when I just pulled out of my driveway, the old fifth wheel would snap and pop loudly several times. It was so quiet with the Curt A25 (new one), both of us looked at each other and looked back to see if the trailer was moving with us. (It was) Thank you to Curt for building it so well and to all of the people at etrailer that recommended it and ensuring it was all right.



by:

My 5th wheel package was robbed during shipping.
When
I received it, the box had obviously been opened and then taped shut.
When I opened it, the base of the 5th wheel hitch was gone!
I called etrailer's customer support and they were amazing.
I sent pictures of the package I took before and after I opened the package.
The customer support rep said that was all I needed to do.
And they shipped a new base two days later.
I just received the base of the hitch.
I am extremely happy that etrailer's customer support was so responsive when I had a serious problem!
Thank you etrailer customer support!



by:

Had a Pullrite Superglide in my old F350 standard bed but when I upgraded to the 8ft bed of the dually, I went with this hitch. Hitch came in 2 boxes and although the boxes worked banged up a bit, everything was there and fine. It only took about 30 minutes to bolt everything together and install on the rails that were already in the truck. I actually had to take the hitch apart once to adjust the hitch up a little. I wanted it as high as possible in the bed, while still clearing the Roll N Lock retractable bed cover. Looks good, seems solid and well made. Hitch head comes off to make it easier to remove this hitch, but even with the head connected, I am able to move the hitch in the truck (would need to take head off for me to lift the hitch out of the truck). Also installed a BedRug at the same time to clean up the bed.



by:

Purchased the Curt 25 A. 25,000 lb capacity with articulating head. I pull an 18,000 lb 5th wheel camper with a 3500 diesel dually. There is lots of movement when braking and start of pull after a full and normal stop. I would not buy the articulating model again. The product seems to be well built just too much front to rear movement in the head.



by:

The only thing I wish I got was a sliding hitch as it would have been a bit easier to hitch as a perfectly straight hitch I have only a inch to spare before my tailgate hits the bulkhead. So being that I have to close the tailgate before I am totally hitched into the kingpin



by:

Curt A25 fifth wheel hitch... received in record time ,box was damaged and the pull arm was bent. Called Etrailer and they sent me another pull arm immediately. Great customer service, will continue to do business here. Thanks Molly and George



by:

Easy to assemble and install. Item is heavy gauge steel and very well constructed. Only downside is the removal and re-install of the cotter pins for adjusting the hold down locks. Small hitch pin clips would make adjustment easier.



by:

It’s held up great. No slack in the kingpin jaws or anywhere else. All the products bought work just the way they were advertised.



by:

Great customer service, thanks for the help…



by:

Great Hitch. I haven't used it to pull yet but it's heavier and seems more sturdy than the Reese I replaced. I also like the interlocking jaws. Many time hitching with the reese I'd have to use a flashlight to see that the jaws were closed but not any more. I'll update once I pull the camper with it.



by:

One year in and no issues. Performs well hauling a 42.5 RV



by:

I am very pleased with my purchase from etrailer. The 25,000 pound hitch and hardware was shipped promptly and received from UPS in good condition.
Thanks, etrailer!



by:

Packaging was tore up, expected that. The head had been dropped and bent the engagement handle. I peened it back to straight to get the black handle back on and moveable. otherwise no issue with the product so far.

    You can use the Curt E16 fifth wheel hitch part # C16115 in the bed of your 2018 Chevy Silverado with the OEM pucks but you would need to use the adapter part # C47BR which converts the pucks to the rail kit style this hitch needs.

If you have the shorter 6-1/2' bed you will want the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Hitch w/ R24 Slider item # C16566 and the Adapter Rails item # C47BR.

  • How to Tow Gooseneck Trailer With OEM Puck System on 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500
    Thank you for the information! We have 2 ways to accomplish this; you can either replace your current gooseneck coupler with an adapter piece like the Bulldog # BD0289590300, or you can use the Adapter Rails # C47BR with the Curt Above-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for Fifth Wheel Rails # 16055 to get a gooseneck hitch ball for your trailer to attach to.

  • Which Curt 5th Wheel Hitches are Not Compatible with a Sidewinder Pin Box?
    The Curt Q-series and A-series 5th wheel hitches are the only Curt hitches not compatible with a Sidewinder pin box. Instead of these models, you can use something like the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Slide Bar Jaw - 16,000 lbs # C16115. If you have the prep package then you'll also need Adapter rails # C47BR. If you don't have prep package then you'll instead need Rail Kit # C16411-204.

    The Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch # C47BR used with the 3" Offset Curt Above-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # 16055, is currently the only way I can find to adapt your 2018 GMC Sierra 2500HD with the factory prep/puck system to use a offset ball. Do note that these items used together will raise the height of the ball 4" between the 2-1/2" height of the Adapter and 1-1/2" of the offset ball.

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch For A 2018 Chevy Silverado 3500 With OEM Puck System
    Hey Ryan, All other 5th wheel hitch options for your 2018 Chevy Silverado 3500 OEM puck system would require an adapter. Of these options I recommend the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R20 Slider # C16541 along with the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch # C47BR. The adapter weighs 77lbs and the hitch weighs 220lbs but you can easily remove the yoke pin to take the head off to reduce the weight.

  • Reese Hitch and Sidewinder Recommendation for 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 Short Bed with OEM Rail Kit
    Since we know you have a Rota-Flex pin box on your trailer we also know that there is a Sidewinder that can fit as a replacement. We do need to know more info though to determine which specific Sidewinder you need. You'll need to look for an LCI number like 1621, 1116, 1716 etc. and we'll know which is the correct fit. If you have a Lippert 1621, 1621HD or 0719 you'd want the part # RP34FR. If you have a Lippert 1116, 1716 or 0115 you'd want # RP77FR. So the other part of this that gets...

    Hi Nick; if you're looking for fixed legs the # CU53FR fits the 2020-2025 models while the # C16025 fits the 2016-2019. For the slider you can use the Curt S20 Slider for E16, A16, and A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # C63DR along with an adapter. If you have the 2020-2025 you need the # C88KR and if it is a 2016-2019 the # C47BR.

  • Can B and W Patriot Slider be Adapted to 2018 GMC Sierra 2500 with OEM Pucks
    The B and W Patriot Slider hitch is an oddball hitch as it's the only one that can't be used with any of the rail kit adapters. There won't be any way to adapt it to your 2018 GMC Sierra 2500 with an OEM to fit this hitch so best option would be a new hitch like the Companion slider part # BWRVK3770.

This kit is custom fit and installs in pre-drilled holes in your trucks frame. This cuts down on install time over the universal kit item # RP30035 you were looking at.

    It's not uncommon for people to install fifth wheel hitches in the bed of their trucks like the Curt A20 for GM Rail Kits part # C16064 that you referenced. This is a solid hitch, but since your truck is a short bed you'd instead need the slider versions part # C55DR with Rails # C47BR to give you the clearance to make tight turns without the cab of your truck hitting the nose of the trailer.

The Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch item # C47BR you were looking at fits the GM puck system in the trucks built from 2016 - 2019. GM changed their pattern in 2020.

The 5th wheel hitch I recommend for the OEM puck system on your 2023 Ford F-450 Super Duty is the Curt A25 # C16180 which connects to the pucks using the Adapter Rails # C88KR. I really like the A25 because it has dual interlocking jaws that wrap around the king pin and provide 360 degree contact, as well as a fully articulating torsion head.

    Typically you'll only want to use 80-85% of any item's total capacity to keep a buffer safety zone so that you never risk having a product fail. You're correct that the only Companions at 25k capacity are for OEM puck systems. B&W is a great brand and is my favorite as well, but in this case they're not going to have anything compatible with with the # BWGNRK1116-5W that's going to have over 20k capacity, so you'll have to look at another brand.

The hitch is a bit heavy, but its weight can be significantly reduced by removing the hitch from the head, which is done by pulling one clevis pin. This breaks the hitch down into two pieces that are more easily handled. If you'd like to install a 7-way in your truck bed so you don't have to run the trailer connector up over the...
