Features to know about
Built for Heavy-Duty 5th Wheel Towing: 20,000 lbs GTW and 5,000 lbs Vertical Load Limit
This setup is designed for big fifth wheels that demand strength and steady control. With a gross towing weight of 20,000 lbs and a vertical load limit of 5,000 lbs, the solid steel build gives you confidence pulling serious weight. The carbide powder coat finish helps protect against scratches and rust over time, while the fully articulating torsion head smooths out road shock for a quieter, more stable tow.
Locked-In Security and Smooth Hookups: Interlocking Dual Jaw + Color-Coded Indicators
The interlocking two-piece jaw wraps completely around the king pin for full 360-degree contact. That design cuts down on rattle and movement so the connection feels tight and controlled from the start. A glance at the three-point color-coded indicator tells you what position the jaws are in—red for uncoupled, yellow for ready to couple, and green for towing—so you always know you’re properly locked before hitting the road.
Extra Clearance When You Need It Most: Non-Binding S20 Slider with 12" Travel
For tight maneuvering at slow speeds, the S20 slider gives you up to 12" of front-to-back travel. That extra space helps prevent the trailer from contacting the cab during sharp turns. It automatically latches in both directions, meaning you only need to step out once to set it. The non-binding design moves smoothly even under pressure, giving you reliable clearance and a solid, quiet sliding motion every time.
Quick Bed Access Without Heavy Lifting: One-Pin Head Removal and OEM Puck System Rails
When you’re done towing, clearing your bed is simple. The fast one-pin head removal lets one person lift off the top section without tools, while the hitch base drops right into puck receivers and locks in place with quarter-turn anchors. The modular design makes storage easier on your back and keeps your truck ready for whatever comes next.
Easy Maintenance and Long-Term Durability: Built-In Zerk Fittings and Lube Plate Included
Keeping this hitch in top shape is straightforward thanks to two built-in zerk fittings that make lubrication quick and clean. The included plastic lube plate helps the king pin glide smoothly into position during hookup. Combined with its sturdy steel frame and limited lifetime warranty, this setup is built to last through countless miles of towing.

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..

I previously owned the Curt A16. We needed a larger tow capacity so we purchased the A20 and decided to buy the S20 slider base as well. Too many sharp turning issues with our 6’8” Chevy standard bed HD3500 during maneuvering. The S20 slider should eliminate this issue. Also I love the design of both the A20 and S20.

Cammi, my customer support person was awesome. I told her what I needed and she recommended to perfect hitch. I was impressed with her knowledge of their products and how fast it was delivered. Installation was simple as long as you follow the very well written directions.

Works really well and easy to install. My only gripe is the cam lock adjuster. The nut has holes in it for a cotter pin but they are at 1/4 turn intervals so its either really tight or kinda loose nothing in the middle. Also to get the cotter pin out is an absolute pain in the butt inside the rails. Once all put together and mostly adjusted its easy in and out works great good quality. Oh and if you use the outside most slot in the rail be sure to put the pin in from the inside and the spring clip facing out or the cam lock will hit the pin and wont open all the way.

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.

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.

- Reese Hitch and Sidewinder Recommendation for 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 Short Bed with OEM Rail KitSince 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...
view full answer... - Correct Adapter Needed to Mount Curt A20 Hitch On a 2016 GMC Sierra W/ OEM PucksCooper, you're just going to need the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch # C47BR. This adapter will pop into your OEM pucks and provide a mounting point for your Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch.
view full answer... - Adapter to Fit Curt 5th Wheel Hitch to 2019 GMC Sierra 2500 OEM PucksHey Bryan, if you have the factory gooseneck hitch in your 2019 GMC Sierra 2500 that would indicate you have the factory underbed rail kit for fifth wheel hitches too as the two rail kits are the same thing. So since you have a Curt fifth wheel hitch currently that is designed to fit above bed rails what you'd want is the Curt rail kit adapter part # C47BR which fits the OEM pucks you have and provides the type of rails your Curt hitch needs.
view full answer... - Will the Curt 5th Wheel Adapter Rails Work W/ a Camco EAZ Lift Hitch Ruben, the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch # C47BR is supposed to work with most 5th wheel hitches that use a ISR (Industry Standard Rails) mounting style, which your Camco uses, so yes it will work.
view full answer... - Legs for Chevy Silverado 2500 OEM Prep For Curt A20 5th Wheel HitchHi 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.

This hitch has a 24,000 lbs capacity and is our highest capacity slider. The 2-jaw locking system gives you less rattle and more security. It does this by providing a 360 jaw to king pin contact.

view full answer... - Does the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Hitch Fit the 2018 GM Factory Puck System?Yes, the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Hitch item # C16069 will fit in the factory puck system of a 2018 Chevy Silverado 2500. The base of this hitch will drop right down into the factory pucks. This hitch is recommended for trucks with the longer 8' beds or shorter bed trucks using rotating pin boxes. 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.

To use a Curt Q20 in the GM factory puck system on the new trucks you'll need the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch item # C88KR. 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. Any GM truck with a puck system built afterwards has to use item # C88KR.
view full answer... - Will the Mopar M25 Head Work on a Curt S25 Slider?Yes, it will. The Mopar M25 head is the same as the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Head item # C16580. The Curt S25 Slider for A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches item # C43DR is designed for the A25 Head item # C16580. You will also need the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch item # C47BR to attach it to your 2018 Chevy Silverado 2500's factory puck system.
view full answer... - 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. To swap out your standard pin box with a rotating/sidewinder pin box you will need to know the...

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. There is not a single drop in ball like you had with the Turnover ball, as the Factory prep/puck...

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. This fits both the 6-1/2' and 8' bed models and is compatible with Reese 5th wheel hitches. If your 2017 Sierra 2500 has the factory puck system you will need...
view full answer... - Can B and W Patriot Slider be Adapted to 2018 GMC Sierra 2500 with OEM PucksThe 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.

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. The former will be most cost-effective when it comes to purchasing the products but the latter will be a bit easier because you won't...

All you need is the following: - Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch - Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # C47BR The title says "for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch" but it is not just for Curt 5th wheel hitches; your Reese hitch will 100% fit this adapter.

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.

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.

- Will a B&W Companion Slider Work w/ a Round Gooseneck Hitch?No, David I am sorry there is not. It sounds like you're describing a standard gooseneck hitch. The B&W Companion Slider item # BWRVK3400-5W can only be used with the Turnoverball system or have the base swapped out to fit in the factory puck systems with item # BWRVB3670. This base fits the Ram OEM puck system that has four mounting holes in the truck bed. The only solution I would potentially have is going to depend on what kind of gooseneck hitch your Ram truck has.

view full answer... - Is Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch Needed For 2021 Ram 2500 6-1/2 Foot Bed & Puck SystemHi Nic, Generally yes, for a truck bed under 8 feet long like on your 2021 Ram 2500 you do need a sliding 5th wheel hitch. That said, there are 5th wheel trailers that have a tapered nose designed to allow the use of fixed 5th wheel hitches as they won't contact the cab on right turns, so if that's the type of trailer you have, then a sliding hitch isn't needed. With that in mind, the hitch I love for your 2021 Ram 2500 with the puck system is the Curt A20 due to its ease of use and...

The B and W Companion Slider part # BWRVK3775 weighs 250 lbs so it weighs a little less in total. The head of this comes off pretty easy too to save weight by making a couple trips to split up the weight. The head weighs 70 lbs. Based on this it would be the easier to install and remove solution.

view full answer... - Curt A20 Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch or Convert-A-Ball Adapter For HeightHi Tony; that's a good question and unequivocally the better option is the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C55DR. This will not only give you extra height, but won't void the warranty on your trailer frame like the Convert-A-Ball adapter does, gives you better turning clearance, and is just a more secure overall set up than what is essentially two different adapters. The # C55DR is also just a really good hitch overall with a superb interlocking jaw system for a tight...
view full answer... - 5th Wheel Rails for 2022 Ford F-350 With Curt A20Hi Brian; the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Ford # C26ZV will fit your 2022 Ford F-350. With the rails installed you will be able to use the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C55DR. However, if you aren't 100% set on the A20, and you don't need that 20k capacity, I would consider a different hitch. I recommend looking at the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider for Ford Super Duty # BW25QR. The Patriot will give you a much better towing experience that is hard...
view full answer... - Recommended Base to Use a Curt 20K Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch in a Ford Factory Puck System Hey David! Sorry to hear about your accident. If you can salvage your Curt 20K slider, like item # C55DR, you'll need the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch item # C88KR. Most if not all of the Curt 20K's mount to industry standard rails and do not have a base option that mounts in the puck system. Now if you have the Curt A20 or Q20 slider you can use the Curt 5th Wheel Round Tube Slider for Ford Super Duty Towing Prep Package item # C16020. These are the only exceptions for the...
view full answer... - Recommended Curt Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2015 Toyota Tundra Hey Ron, great question. So basically unless you have a puck system in your bed which it sounds like you don't, you're going to want to steer clear of those style hitches because those are not going to work with regular 5th wheel rails. For regular rails, I'd recommend going with the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C55DR instead. This hitch is identical to the Q20, has the same weight ratings, and has an adjustable hitch height of 17-1/2" - 21-1/2".
view full answer... - How Can I Get My Pin Box Higher and My 5th Wheel Hitch Lower so I Can Have Level Towing?Hello Mike, Let’s get you level so your towing experience can be much more enjoyable. Since you have the Curt A20 slider, it’s important to note that it should not be used in combination with the Reese Revolution. You want either a sliding hitch or a rotating pin box, not both, as combining them can create unsafe towing conditions. You're on the right track with the Curt Flex Air 5th Wheel Pin Box - Lippert 1621 - 18,000 lbs # LC328492. Replacing your Revolution with the Curt will likely...

The Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Chevy/GMC OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package item # DM6333 will fit any 5th wheel hitch that attaches to industry standard rails, including the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider item # C55DR. The only exception to this is the B&W Patriot Slider item # BWRVK3270 because it sits too low and hits the adapter when sliding. Please note that the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter item # DM6333 only fits the GMC puck...
view full answer... - Comparing the Curt A20 and B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitches Jaw SystemsHey Heath, thanks for reaching out! The Curt A20 # C55DR and the B&W Companion # BWRVK3670 you're looking at are both excellent 5th wheel hitches, but I have to go with the Companion in this case simple because it is more robust and has a better build quality. It's true that the Companion uses dual jaws, but those guys are 1" thick jaws so they will still hold the king pin nice and securely. The Curt has the interlocking jaws (which I really like) but it just doesn't have the same quality. Please...
view full answer... - Options For Installing 5th Wheel Hitch In 2019 Ram 3500 without OEM Puck System They do not make an aftermarket puck system kit for your 2019 Ram 3500, so you have a few options to get a 5th wheel hitch installed. The standard way is installing above bed rails # C16430-204 to use a sliding 5th wheel hitch # C55DR if you have a 6-1/2' bed, or a fixed 5th wheel hitch # C16140 if you have an 8' bed. If having the permanently installed above bed rails is a buzz kill for you, then another option is installing the B&W Turnoverball # BWGNRK1320-5W will allow you to install...
view full answer... - 5th Wheel Rails Needed to Use a Curt Sliding Hitch on a 2019 Ford F-250 Short BedThe exact part that you need to use your Curt sliding 5th wheel hitch, like part # C55DR, in the short bed of your 2019 Ford F-250 depends on if you have the OEM prep package or not. If you do have the OEM prep package then you simply need the Elite Series Underbed Rail Adapter # RP30156 which drops into your puck system. If you don't have the OEM prep package you need a base rail kit like part # RP50074-58 which doesn't require drilling for the install. Both of these options give you...

- Availability of Aftermarket Puck System for 2023 GMC Sierra 2500At this time, the Curt # C16429-204 above bed rails are the only confirmed fit for the 2023 GMC Sierra 2500. This would allow you to use a 5th wheel hitch like the # C55DR if you have a short bed or # C16140 for a long bed. For an underbed system, it may be possible to use the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1020. However, B&W only has reports of some customers and dealers successfully installing the hitch so we cannot guarantee it will fit. This would allow...

You would want to use a hitch with a slider base like the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C55DR. This hitch can slide back 12" in the maneuvering position to allow for more clearance during tight turns so that you don't...
view full answer... - Can A Curt A20 Be Used In Both Long And Short Bed Trucks With OEM Ford Puck System?This is basically just the way our fit guide is set up. We will always recommend a fixed hitch (non slider) like the Curt A20 # C16140 for trucks with an 8' bed. We recommend a sliding hitch like the Curt A20 slider # C55DR for the 6-3/4' bed like yours. The Ford puck system will be identical for long bed and short bed models. We just recommend the slider for short bed, and fixed hitch for long bed. We recommend sliders for short bed to gain additional clearance on tight turns. In many...

view full answer... - Tips for Choosing the Best Truck to Tow a 5th Wheel TrailerStarting with the truck series itself, I would go with a 3/4 ton or 1 ton. Ultimately a 1-ton would be better. Between gas and diesel I would choose a diesel if it were me. They are capable of more power and torque than gas motors. The cab style does not matter all that much but the bed size does. You will want to avoid a step side bed and a Dodge model that has a Rambox feature because they cannot have a 5th wheel hitch installed. Long beds are the way to go. A short bed can cause issues...
