E16 5th Wheel Jaw

Simple, Secure Hookup

With a dual-pivoting head that offers 10 degrees of lateral movement, the E16 fifth-wheel hitch makes hookup a snap, even on unlevel ground. Once the king pin slides into the hitch, the auto-locking, slide-bar jaw secures it in place. A unique feature of the E16 is the rear steel tension bar within the jaw that activates upon hookup to clamp down on the king pin, providing a tighter grip that maximizes security and minimizes rattle.



Non-Binding S20 Slider

Specially designed for trucks with 6' to 8' beds, this non-binding slider helps to eliminate clearance problems during slow-speed turns. When you are towing a fifth-wheel trailer, your hitch must be situated on the cab side of your truck's rear axle. However, at slow speeds you can use a slider to slide the fifth-wheel hitch (and the trailer) toward your truck's tailgate and past the rear axle, creating enough space between the cab of your truck and the trailer to permit less-restricted turning.

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.

  • Can a Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch Be Used With a Long Bed Truck
    You absolutely can put a slider 5th wheel hitch in your 2015 Chevrolet 3500 long bed; it's more than likely you won't need the sliding function to make turns so it could stay in the forward travel position. The only downside to it is there is more moving parts with slider hitches, which means there's going to be more noise when you're towing. Not to mention they are bigger and weigh more than stationary hitches so removing, and installing them is a little more difficult. To put your existing...

  • 5th Wheel Install Kit For 2013 GMC 2500HD With 8' Bed
    Hey Richard, thanks for reaching out. You can use the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC # C16411-204 to install your Curt Q25 in your 2013 GMC 2500HD with the 8' bed. This is a full install kit so you get your base rails, brackets and hardware. I have linked an install video for you below.

  • Will the Curt Kit # C16411-204 Fit a 2011 GMC Sierra 2500/3500 with a Gooseneck Hitch
    Although the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # C16411-204 is a fit for your 2011 GMC Sierra 2500/3500, if you already have a gooseneck trailer hitch installed it will not fit as they use the same bracket locations. If you let me know what gooseneck hitch you have I can see if we have an adapter that will allow you to utilize a 5th wheel hitch though.

  • Best Lightweight Fifth Wheel Hitch for 2018 GMC Sierra 2500HD To Use With Sidewinder
    We have exactly what you need to use a lightweight fifth wheel hitch and Sidewinder in your 2018 GMC Sierra 2500HD with a short bed, and though we do not carry the aluminum Andersen hitch we do know you cannot use rotating pin boxes with this hitch. Instead I strongly recommend the Demco Recon 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM8550043 because it is compatible with a Sidewinder and has a head unit which weighs 50 lbs and a base unit which weighs 50 lbs; this means you can easily remove it from...

  • Will The Curt 5TH Wheel Hitch Rails Fit With Curt Double Lock Gooseneck Hitch on 2018 Chevy 3500?
    The Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # C16411-204 will not fit your 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 as you already have the Rails # C60604 for a gooseneck hitch installed where the rail brackets mount. If you have the Double Lock # C607-604 you can use the Adapter # C16210 for using a 5th wheel hitch.

  • How Many Bolts Are Used To Mount The Curt 5th Wheel Brackets To The Frame Of A 2012 Chevy Silverado
    On 2016 and newer models there's weld nuts available for you to insert two more bolts in the brackets for the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC # C16411-204. Since you have a 2012 you're good to go with just the two bolts you referenced. In the attached video below where Dave installs these on a 2013 you'll see he only uses two bolts on the side brackets when attaching them to the frame.

  • Can Demco Autoslider be Used with2015 GMC Sierra 3500 Factory Gooseneck Hitch
    Hey Nathan, thanks for reaching out! 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...

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Underbed System for 2015 Chevy Silverado Short Bed with Gooseneck Integrated
    There is only one option to help you get the gooseneck and rails you desire in your 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500 short bed. 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...

  • Can Curt Fifth Wheel Rail Kit Work with Pullrite Superglide Fifth Wheel Hitch
    If 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.

  • Base Rail Install Kit to Use a Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch in 2012 GMC Sierra 2500 Short Bed
    Technically speaking the Curt A16 Sliding Fifth Wheel Hitch # C16521 fits into industry standard rails like the Reese # RP56001-53. However, we always recommend using base rails that are made by the same manufacturer as the hitch since they are designed to work together. The Curt install kit that works with the same 2012 GMC Sierra 2500 with a 6-1/2 foot bed is # C16411-204

    With the Curt A20 slider hitch # C16541 and the install rails # C16411-204 and an air bag kit like the Firestone Ride Rite # F2613 installed in your 2019 GMC Sierra 2500 you wouldn't have any problems at all towing. Just make sure everything is connected properly and just take your time getting used to towing and you'll be fine.

  • Will Curt Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit C16413 Fit a 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 3500
    Yes, the Curt fifth-wheel bracket kit # C16411 is a fit for your 2011 Chevrolet 3500. The kit does include all hardware to install the brackets, but they do not include hardware for the fifth-wheel rails. We offer the brackets and rails in a custom install kit for your vehicle, part # C16411-204. The Reese fifth wheel rail installation kit # RP50066-58 would be similar to the Curt kit, as they are both custom fit for the same vehicle. The installation procedure would be similar as well....

    You should have no problem using your Reese Hitch, part # RP30051 on your new 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 Dually if it is not a Stepside. Stepside beds are too narrow and cannot be used to tow fifth wheel trailers. The rail installation kit that was on your 2011 Chevrolet 2500 will not work on your 2015. I recommend the Curt Fifth Wheel Installation Kit, part # C16411-204. This installation kit includes the custom brackets which cuts the installation time in half. The rails will work...

  • Fifth Wheel and Rail Kit Recommend for 2016 Chevy 3500HD Towing Trailer with Max Turn Nose
    Normally for short bed trucks a slider hitch is needed to allow you to make tight turns, but since you have a trailer that has a narrow nose it would not be necessary. The Curt A20 hitch part # C16140 is a great hitch that would work well for you. This is the stationary hitch. For a rail kit you would want to go with a custom fit kit like the part # C16411-204 which is custom fit for your 2016 Chevy Silverado 3500. Custom kits limit the amount of drilling needed for install and cut the...

  • Troubleshooting Fit Issues With Demco Hijacker AutoSlide with UnderBed Mount
    For your 2018 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD with Factory Rail Kit, the # DM8550022 is not the correct fit. You will want the similar # DM8550034 along with the Installation Rails # DM6194. You can simply change out the side plates with # DM6003 for that fit. If you do not have the factory rail kit/puck system, then you can use the # DM6003 to make your hitch compatible with industry standard rails and then use the Curt base rail kit # C16411-204 for a custom fit.

  • Can Reese 16k Hitch Install in Curt 5th Wheel Rail C16411-204 Of 2011 Chevy Silverado 2500HD
    The Curt fifth wheel rail kit part # C16411-204 that you referenced is a fit for your 2011 Chevy Silverado 2500HD short bed and the Reese hitch part # RP30047 will fit it, but unless your trailer has a tapered nose designed for short bed clearance you'll need a slider since your bed is short. The Reese 16k Slider part # RP30051 would be the better choice. This slider has a square tube, which a round tube slider like the part # RP30075 would be the better choice.

  • Best Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500
    The Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # C16411-204 is a custom kit for your 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. The brackets and hardware are made for your truck so there is no drilling into the frame. The only drilling required is into the truck bed for the base rails. The installation details are also included that you may take a look at. You may also be interested in the Curt Fifth Wheel Custom Wiring Harness # C56070 for your Silverado.

    I may have a solution for you, but there is not a solution for you to add an aftermarket OEM style prep package for your 2019 Sierra 2500 that would be compatible with the Curt # C16023, which is only compatible with the factory prep package. For these reasons you will need to install a different 5th wheel installation rail kit to use your existing Curt sliding hitch. The rails you'll want to use, which are a custom fit for the 2019 Sierra 2500, are the Curt # C16411-204. This will give...

  • How To Install Fifth Wheel Hitch Rails In A Chevrolet Silverado 2500 Short Bed
    The installation of your fifth wheel hitch rails will be specific to your vehicle and will include centering the rails and your hitch in your truck bed. 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). Then use your fifth wheel hitch as a guide to position the front rail and a tape...

    The Curt Install Kit with Rails, # C16411-204, that you referenced is designed to fit all hitches that are designed to fit industry standard fifth wheel rails. So yes, your Reese 14k hitch will fit this kit. However, this rail kit isn't designed to fit your 2012 GMC Sierra with a 5-1/2 foot bed, instead you would want the part # RP50064-58. This is a very similar custom install kit that will work on your vehicle. Since your truck bed is so short you will need to use 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...

  • Recommended Trucks To Tow Fifth Wheel Trailer
    If you want to tow a 5th wheel trailer, the best trucks are going to be long bed 3/4 or 1 tons like a Ford F-250/F-350, Chevy/GMC 2500/3500, or Ram 2500/3500. I also recommend going with a long bed truck so you have enough clearance when making sharper turns. A diesel engine has more towing power and torque, so that may be an option you go for. If you get an automatic transmission you will want to make sure the vehicle has a transmission cooler. If you choose a Ford I recommend the...

    Yes, the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2709 will fit your 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 with the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit part # C16411-204 installed. These airbags do use a u-bolt but they don't go around the frame like some others will. They actually just wrap around the jounce spring cup which the fifth wheel install kit does not affect. I have attached a photo of these airbags installed with a similar set of fifth wheel brackets so you can see how they...

  • Sliding Fifth Wheel Hitch for a 2017 F-250 Super Crew with 6 3/4 Bed
    Since you have a Keystone trailer with the Turn Max technology you don't need a slider at all actually. Manual or automatic slider would not be needed. With fifth wheel hitch you actually don't really need them to sit higher than the bed rails of the truck. It's actually the opposite in nearly every situation that the hitch sits below the top of the bed rails. The pin box of the truck extends down far enough to compensate for that. The Reese fifth wheel hitch part # RP30047 is a similar...

    Unfortunately not, Chuck. It looks like the Reese Square Tube Slider for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30048 will only adjust down to 15" so it's going to be a tick out of reach. It looks like to get what you're after you're going to need to swap your hitch out with something like the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C95DR which has an adjustment range of 14" to 17" so you'd be right where you need to be height wise.

The # BWRVK3300 is a stationary hitch so it would not be ideal for you. Plus it's designed to fit Ford hitch prep packages. You would need to go with a slider hitch like the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C95DR. For a rail kit you will want to go with a custom install kit like the part # RP56001-53 which will install in about half the...

I am not sure if you have the 5th wheel Load & Towing Groups package or if you have the Ram 1500, so I will recommend two 5th wheel hitches.

  • Should Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch Be Used on 2018 Ford F-250 with Short Bed
    Unless the 5th wheel trailer you plan on getting is equipped with a pivoting pin box like the Reese Sidewinder or Lippert Turning Point, we do always recommend using a sliding hitch on trucks that have a bed shorter than 8 feet. The slider travel is going to allow you to make sharper turns when towing without having to worry about the trailer crashing into the back of your cab. The fixed Reese # RP30928 that you were looking for is an excellent choice, and for a slider you would use part...

This hitch will provide you with the needed clearance from the cab of the truck to assist when making sharp turns while towing your 5th wheel trailer.

If you have a 6-1/2 foot bed you'd need a slider hitch like part # C95DR, if you have a long bed you'd want a stationary hitch part # RP30047.

  • 5th Wheel Base Rails That Fit With A 2022 Ram 2500 For Sliding Hitch
    For your 2022 Ram 2500, you're going to need the: -B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2602. This custom fit kit will bolt right up to your 2022 Ram 2500, and allow you to use the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C95DR. Additionally, since you do not have an in-bed 7-way I highly recommend adding one # 50-97-410. This makes things much easier when it comes to plugging and unplugging your trailer, and keeps your truck looking neat.

  • Fifth Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit Recommendation for 2017 Ford F-250 Short Bed
    For your 2017 Ford F-250 without the factory rail kit I'd recommend the Reese custom install kit part # RP50074-58 as this won't require any frame drilling like a universal style kit would. This is especially nice for if your plan is to eventually up grade to an underbed kit. Then for a hitch the Curt 16k slider part # C95DR is priced well and has a jaw design that wraps around the king pin to minimize noise and movement.

  • Fifth Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit Recommendation for a 2015 Ram 2500 Short Bed
    Since your 2015 Ram 1500 has a short bed you will need a slider hitch to let you make tight turns, and for that I recommend the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C95DR. For a rail kit to fit your underbed rail kit you will need the # RP30154.

  • 5th Wheel Towing Capacity and Recommendations for 2017 Ford F-150 with 3.5L V6 Engine
    Based on the online specs I was able to pull up for the 2017 Ford F-150 it looks like your 4x2 SuperCrew model with the 3.5L GTDI V6 engine and 3.55 axle ratio can pull a 5th wheel trailer that weighs as much as 8,700 pounds at base or up to 10,400 if you have the max trailer tow package. Since you don't think you have this package you are looking at a 5th wheel towing capacity of 8,700 pounds. Since there are so many variables (as you have seen) I also recommend visiting a local Ford...

  • Fifth Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit Recommendation for a 2015 Ram 2500 without Rail Kit Short Bed
    For a fifth wheel rail install kit confirmed to fit your 2015 Ram 2500 short bed without the underbed rail kit you would want the Reese Custom Install Kit part # RP56009-53. This is a custom install kit that will minimize drilling and will cut install time in half when compare to a much more difficult to install universal rail kit. This rail kit would work great with the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C95DR.

  • Fifth Wheel Slider Hitch Recommendation for 2002 Ford F-150 Short Bed
    Reese does not offer their Elite style of under-bed rails for your 2002 Ford F-150 so you wouldn't be able use the Elite slider hitch you mentioned in your truck. You'd need to use an above-bed style of slider hitch like the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C95DR. So for a rail kit to fit your truck you'd then want the Curt rail kit part # C16437-204 which is a custom fit for your truck and will also fit your rail kit.

  • Correct Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit for a 2022 Ford F-250 Short Bed
    The correct Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit for a 2022 Ford F-250 is part # RP56017-53. There are only outboard kits (long rails) from Reese for this truck but this makes for an easier installation. If you don't already have a fifth wheel hitch picked out, I recommend the Curt 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with Slider part # C95DR. I also recommend the Bargman 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness for Aluminum Truck Bed part # 54701-003-010.

  • Fifth Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit Recommendation for a 2012 Ram 1500
    You would be barely under the towing capacity but technically yes, if your 2012 Ram 1500 has a 10,250 towing capacity and the trailer you are looking at weighs 10,244 lbs you would be good to go. However, you need to consider the fact that when you are towing this trailer you only will have about 6 lbs worth of capacity left over for cargo. Realistically that's probably not going to be enough so a lighter trailer would be a better choice. The part # RP30081 that you referenced would be...

  • Can Curt 16k Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch Be Used in 2018 Ram 1500 6-1/2 foot Bed
    Yes, your 2018 Ram 1500 can use the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ S20 Slider # C95DR, and you'd also need the custom install rail kit part # RP50142-58. Since your truck bed is 6 foot 4 inches (we round it to 6-1/2 feet) the slider hitch that comes with this would work well. It's the beds shorter than 6 feet that need more clearance that this slider hitch could provide. Custom install rail kits are the way to go anyway as they minimize install time and drilling. You'll also need...

  • Replacement Crossmember Needed For A Pro-Series 15k 5th Wheel Hitch
    Hey Joel, I unfortunately don't have a parts diagram for your Pro Series 15k 5th Wheel hitch and a majority of Pro Series 5th wheel hitch components are discontinued at this point so I don't think you'll be able to find the crossbeam that I believe you're referring to. We do still have the old Reese 16k head/crossmember # RP30047A that would work with the sliding legs if they're part # RP30048 or part # RP50024. If you want to send me some pictures of what you have I can take a look...
