Secure, Interlocking Two-Piece 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

A20 Color 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 An In-Depth Look at 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 the Chevrolet and GMC trucks. Now, this is a custom fit part. It is designed to fit the 1999 to 2010 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500, 2500 and 3500 models, with either the six and a half foot bed or the eight foot bed. 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. That'll show you if this will work for your application.

Now these brackets right here, they are designed to mount beneath your truck bed to provide the attachment point for your fifth wheel rails. Now those fifth wheel rails, we do sell separately on our website. They go by part number C16104 or C16204. And just give you an idea what those rails look like, they come in a set of two, and again, they'll attach to these mounting brackets on your vehicle. This provides a custom fit by mounting to the existing holes in your vehicle's frame.

That will minimize the amount of drilling that's required to install these, and it'll cut the installation time in half when compared with universal bracket kits. If you notice, it does include all the necessary hardware to install it. It does even come with this nice extra bracket for relocation of the electrical box. And it comes with a nice set of instructions with pictures that'll describe how these parts install. The finish on these brackets is a nice black powder coat finish to resist corrosion.

And these will work with the BMW, CURT, Draw-Tite, 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..

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit for 2001 Chevy 2500HD
    For your 2001 Chevy 2500 HD, your towing capacity for a 5th wheel is based on the Gross Combined Weight Rating. Your truck will have a sticker in the driver's door frame that states the GVWR of your truck. For your 5th Wheel, I recommend beginning with the custom rail kit # C16418-204. This kit will give you custom brackets to allow you to mount the brackets to your frame with only the need to drill one hole in the frame on each side. The other holes are already in the frame that...

    Hey Austin! The correct set of 5th wheel rails for a 2004 GMC Sierra 2500 are going to be the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC item # C16418-204. This set of rails is industry standard which means it will work with most 5th wheel hitches on the market. The brackets are custom fit and install in pre-existing holes in your Sierra's frame.

  • Slider Base Recommendation to Convert Curt E16 Hitch to a Slider

  • How to Increase Cab Clearance When Towing a 5th Wheel Trailer with a 2004 GMC Sierra 6-1/2 Bed
    In order to choose a replacement pin box for your '89 Featherlite Holiday Rambler you can either look for a pin box number on your current pin box (like 1621 or 0719 for example) but if you can't locate a number the next best thing to do is take measurements of your pin box.

    Henry, it sounds like you're looking for something like the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16180 with the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC # C16418-204. This hitch has a 25k capacity, is made by Curt, and will work great with your toy hauler. Ideally I'd say you do no drilling to install the rails but for what you're looking for the best we can do is the semi-custom install kit which will require less drilling than a universal hitch but still some drilling....

    Hey Eric. To add a set of 5th wheel rails to your 2007 Chevy Silverado 2500, I recommend the Curt Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC item # C16418-204.

    Hi Stephen; the # C46JV you ordered is the correct part for your 2007 Silverado 3500 with an 8' bed. This includes the # C16130 (Q20) along with the base rail kit and custom brackets # C16418-204 (same as 16204 and 16418).

    The Reese universal installation kit # RP30035 will accept your 14K Reese 5th wheel trailer hitch. This kit does fit your 2002 Chevy Silverado unless it is a 1500HD long bed but we do not have a video on that particular truck. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view. If you do have a 1500HD you can use a custom installation kit like # C16418-204. Even though this is a Curt brand installation kit it is still compatible with your Reese hitch.

    The rails are all made to the same specs for the most part as far as how the hitches fit into them but as far as how they attach to the brackets under the truck bed they are different enough that they are not interchangeable. The two most common kits for your 2008 Chevy Silverado 2500HD are the Reese part # RP50064-58 and the Curt # C16418-204 which you can check out and let me know if either brackets match what you have.

  • Is There a Sidewinder Available for a Leland 7930 Pin Box
    I do have a possible solution for you but there is not a rotating pin box available like a Reese Sidewinder for the Leland 7930. Therefore, your only option if you want to tow said trailer is to use a sliding 5th wheel hitch with as much travel as possible. The Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16521 is a good option for this as it offers 12" of front to back travel. In order to install this on a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 you can then use the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation...

These rails are compatible with Husky 5th wheel trailer hitches. I have included a link to the installation details below.

I've attached a diagram below showing the spacing of the rails. For a 1999 Chevy Silverado 2500 you would need the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC # C16418-204.

  • Can You Mix Fifth Wheel Rail and Bracket Manufacturers
    We can't recommend the mixing of fifth wheel brackets and rail manufacturers. If you have Reese rails you would want a set of Reese brackets. Without knowing what vehicle you have it would be hard for me to recommend the correct brackets to go with your rails. If you have Curt brackets and need rails you would want # C16204.

If your 2008 GMC Sierra is a 1500 or a 2500 Light Duty then you can use Curt installation kit # C16400-204. If it is a 2500HD or a 3500 then use # C16418-204. Custom installation kits are preferred because you won't have to drill into the truck frame for installation. They also take less time to install.

    I looked up the towing capacity of a 2007 Chevy Silverado 2500 with a 6.0 and every configuration was well over 7,600 lb so yes it could. Looks like lowest configuration is 9,600 lb towing capacity and highest 13,000 lb. I'd recommend confirming this with your owners manual or local GM dealer though. If you were looking for a fifth wheel hitch the Curt A20 part # C16140 would be a great option. It has more than enough weight capacity and also has a really tight jaw design that which provides...

  • Will the Curt Custom 5th Wheel Bracket Kit # C16411 Fit My 2004 Chevy Silverado 2500?
    I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for Chevy/GMC # C16411 will not fit your 2004 Chevy Silverado 2500. However, the part you need for your vehicle is the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for Chevy/GMC # 16418. With this bracket kit, if you need the base rails in addition to the hardware, I recommend purchasing only # C16418-204 (Carbine finish) or # C16418-104 (Gloss finish). These base rails come with the hardware as well.

The best way to find out what the exact towing capacity is for either Chevrolet Silverado is to compare the options that you have to the chart listed on page 4-70 to 4-75 of your owner's manual. If it turns out that you are able to pull the 5th wheel then you will need a few items in order to do so. If either...

The reason you can do so is that the air bags install to the bottom of your truck's frame so the air bags will not interfere with a base rail kit like the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC Truck # C16429-204 that fits your 2020 Silverado 2500.

  • Why Would Curt A20 Fifth Wheel Hitch Chuck with Travel Trailer
    Hey Matt, that's frustrating to hear but my first question is what type of wedge are you using for the pin box and the A20? If it's a universal wedge that would be what I'd think the issue is. The custom fit wedge you'd need is the part # C16992. That should tighten up chucking quite a bit. Let me know what you have now for a wedge and we can go from there. Also if you see where the movement is that is causing the noise let me know.

  • 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...

  • Correct Curt 5th Wheel Install Kit for a 2020 Ram 3500
    The correct Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for a 2020 Ram 3500 is part # C16430-204. The Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit is a custom bolt-on fit with no cutting or drilling required into the frame. If you don't already have a fifth wheel hitch, the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16140 is my recommendation because of the interlocking dual jaw system which has a tight grip on the king pin and works to reduce chucking and jarring.

  • Is the Reese Sidewinder Pin Box Compatible with a Curt A20 5th Wheel Hitch?
    Hey Tim! Yes, the Reese Sidewinder Pin Both # RP34FR (which replaced the 68220) will work great with a Curt A20 hitch, like the universal # C16140, but you'll need to use the Sidewinder Wedge # C27NR for the Curt A20. Are you looking to replace your pin box, or your 5th wheel hitch?

  • Solution for Curt Q20 Fifth Wheel Hitch with Loud Clunking from Jaws
    Since the jaws of your Q20 can't be adjusted or replaced your best solution is going to be a new hitch like with the Curt A20 part # C16140 which is the newer version of what you have now which has a much tighter jaw design that will be quieter and last longer. Instead of the two jaw pieces coming together and just touching each other in the middle the A20 jaw has two pieces that lock together.

  • Where are Grease Fittings on Curt A20 Fifth Wheel Hitch
    I can help you with info on greasing the A20 hitch but we don't have a video to share at this time. The zerk fittings for the Curt A20 hitch part # C16140 are located on the front of each jaw.The jaws must be in the closed and locked position for the zerks to be accessible. They are kind of hard to see but I attached a picture that points them out. Curt recommends high pressure grease like the part # L11465. If you need a grease gun we have part # L30200.

  • Why Can't the Curt Rota-Flex Pin Boxes Be Used with the Curt Q-Series 5th Wheel Hitches
    Hey Derek, thanks for reaching out! The Curt Rota-Flex pin boxes, like part # LC176440 you referenced, aren't compatible with the Curt Q-Series hitches because the pin box hitch plate moves and the Q-Series hitches use a spherical axial bearing which provides a smooth ride quality for standard pin boxes, but will work against the movement of the Rota-Flex pin boxes. Instead of the Q-Series I recommend using the A-Sers # C16140 which is pretty similar, but it has a torsion head so it will...

  • Towing 19K Toy Hauler With 18K Rated 5th Wheel Hitch
    According to my research, the 2007 Silverado 2500 Classic has a towing capacity that varies from about 10,100 to around 15,000 lbs depending on how the truck is equipped so you'll definitely be exceeding the towing capacity of the truck as well as that of an 18K capacity 5th wheel hitch. Does the 19K figure you stated for the weight of the toy hauler represent its GVWR or is that it's dry or weight? The dry weight would typically be quite a bit lower. I couldn't recommend towing in excess...

  • Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for 2008 Ford F-350 With Curt Gooseneck Hitch
    There are a couple of options which you can choose from which will allow you to pull a 5th wheel trailer with your 2008 Ford F-350, which I'll go over for you. The best option by far is the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # DM8550045 because it gives you the security of a fifth wheel hitch with a strong jaw system while simply fitting on the gooseneck ball of the Curt EZr. It is both simple to use and strong, with a 21,000 lb towing capacity. I strongly recommend...

  • Recommended Curt A20 5th Wheel Hitch Legs that Fit the 2025 Chevy Puck System
    Hey Todd, congrats on the new truck. Since your 2025 Chevy 3500 has the factory puck system, you'll need the Curt OEM 5th Wheel Hitch Legs for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package item #CU53FR. These will drop directly down into the factory pucks and allow you to secure your A20 hitch. Please note you will need to reuse the hardware on your current Curt A20 hitch like item # C16140 to attach the new legs item # CU53FR. What kind of trailer do you have?

  • Under Bed Fifth Wheel Hitch Rail Recommendation for 2017 Ford F-250
    Essentially the factory Ford fifth wheel rail system is a Reese rail kit, but Reese doesn't sell the rail kit for your truck and the only way to get it would be directly through Ford. Curt does offer a fifth wheel hitch that fits that rail kit directly though with the A20 part # C16034. Another option is the B and W Companion Hitch and Gooseneck setup that consists of the rail kit/gooseneck hitch # BWGNRK1116-5W and then the fifth wheel hitch part # BWRVK3500-5W. The rail kit doubles...
