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.

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..

Average Customer Rating:  4.7 out of 5 stars   (375 Customer Reviews)

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. Rails and installation kit included.

by:

This is a great kit from Curt to install your 5th wheel hitch. Installation was not to hard even while working on the ground. Tightening up the frame and rail nuts was a little difficult. You will need an Extra Long 3/4 inch Ratcheting Wrench to get to the ones near the fuel tank. The customer service from etrailer is Exceptional. I was missing a few spacers and bolts because UPS trashed the box but etrailer replaced all the hardware over night. Definitely will be using this company for all future purchases. Thank you!



by:

The install went easily and smoothly, made for a near perfect fit. It didn't last me a year though, got it from Maine to Florida, but the spring trip north only made it as far as Richmond Hill Ga where I rolled the truck & trailer. Nobody was hurt, and the Curt system (with my Reese 5th wheel) held up so well, that the police had difficulty separating the truck from the trailer after the accident. Good product (and this was the 2nd one I've installed over the last 5 years.



by:

I’m able to do so much more with my truck now that I’ve installed these rails. I’m pulling fifth wheels and goose neck trailers. I had to drill a hole in each side of the frame which wasn’t the easiest thing to do. Use a jack and a block of wood to lift up on the frame but leave the tires on the ground. This will give you more room for a drill and an impact gun to tighten everything up once it’s on.



by:

The Help & professionalism of Quinn F @ etrailer.com was outstanding. He confirmed that the product was the best choice for my vehicle & purpose, his personal response & follow through impressed me (including an e-mail letting me know my parts were delivered a couple days early). I will definitely be using Quinn F @ etrailer.com for all my RV related needs.

Time to install is way off



by:

2004 Chevy Silverado 2500HD, installed the Custom 5th Wheel Installation kit along with the Q16 Slider Hitch. Product arrived very quickly after ordering. It was shipped in 3 different boxes. One box was a little beat up during shipping, but all of the parts were there and undamaged. I watched the installation video once, then my brother-in-law and I tackled the job which took us about 2 hours. This was not difficult to install other than trying to get the 1/2" bolt through the hole on the driver side of the frame (the frame is boxed there). The included wire guide helped, but you still have to manipulate the bolt into the right position in a very tight spot. Everything turned out to be a perfect fit, no modifications needed. Also, I removed both rear wheels before starting which gave us plenty of working room. I have purchased from etrailer in the past and will continue to use them in the future.



by:

Nice well made with thick material. Time would tell how sturdy it is. Easy to install, clear instructions with everything you need for it. (Nuts and bolts).
This is my second mounting kit that I get for my trucks.



by:

Upon delivery the box was a little banged up. Everything was inside was still in good condition. To my time with install to insure proper alignment, the only thing I can say negative about it is, you need 4 additional 3/4 inch washers for the frame bracket bolts that are not included, at least I did! On both sides. In the end it was a rather easy success.



by:

High quality, heavy duty system. Bolted right in and instructions were easy to follow. I feel good about pulling our camper with this set up. Only issue was shipping, the box was damaged and was missing the pins that were ordered. But customer service quickly got thing fixed and resent.



by:

This kit is perfect! Comes with everything you need with easy to install instructions. I’d recommend this and other etrailer products. They match all factory specs. Simple and easy



by:

Installed on my 2005 Chevrolet 2500. Used install videos from your website and had no problems at all installing. Fast shipping also. Thank you for a great website!



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:

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:

Had an issue with my bank denying my order of two of the same items. Talked to Adam with customer service and he was fantastic. He got everything straightened out and received my order in less than two days



by:

Well built. Some bolts are a bugger to get tightened up but not bad. Didn't remove the heat shield.



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!!



by: 08/26/2023

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:

Very strong product I would give five stars except the instructions would not be good for an every day truck owner but the E trailer video is really good the only issue with a long bed is you have to drill 4 holes in the front of the frame two on each side and be aware if you do have a long bed truck you will need a big drillbit for instants I used a 7/8 but the overall product is good shipping was great could not imagine having to install the universal brackets and this kit made it so much easier



by:

I wish I could give two ratings for this kit, one for quality of product, and one for quality of fit and instruction. The product quality, once it is installed is very nice and heavy duty.
The instructions, and the fit on my 2005 GMC one ton dually leave a lot to be desired. They say it should take about 90 minutes to install. Plan on about 8 hours if you don't have a lift, and plan on drilling 3/4 inch holes in the frame rails. You better have access to a compressor, cut off wheel, 1/2 inch impact gun, 1/2 inch drill motor and 3/4 drill or reamer. This is NOT for the average "weekend warrior" with a small set of hand tools to install.



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:

Easy install,great product

  • 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.

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.

    The best type of truck to pull a larger 5th wheel trailer such as a 39-foot Jayco is a 1-ton long-bed. Long beds avoid the issue of too little turning clearance and 1-tons will have the power needed to pull a heavy trailer without strain. They also avoid the need for slider hitches which usually require you to get out of the truck to release the slide before making a tight turn in a campground. Trucks with a 6-1/2-foot bed will require you to use a sliding type hitch unless the trailer...

    For starters, the fifth wheel install kit I recommend for a 2019 Ram 3500 is the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit part # C16430-204 which does not require any drilling into the frame.

  • How to Reduce Severe Chucking and Jarring Issues with a 2013 Keystone Montana 5th Wheel Trailer
    You are correct, the Lippert Tri-Glide has since been replaced with the Lippert Trailair Flex Air in favor of a more streamline design with less moving parts.
