The Curt CrossWing gives you the same heavy-duty hauling capability you expect from a full-size fifth wheel hitch, but without the strain of lifting a 200-lb chunk of steel. It’s rated for 20,000 lbs gross towing weight and 5,000 lbs vertical load, yet the two-piece steel body weighs just 70 lbs total—65% lighter than most traditional designs. Built-in grip points make it easy to lift out of the bed when you’re done towing, so clearing your truck bed doesn’t require equipment or an extra set of hands.
Instead of fighting with jaws and pin alignment, the CrossWing uses a unique coupler piece that bolts around your trailer’s king pin and slides directly into an open-faced hitch head. The angled contact surface lines up perfectly in view of a 3rd-brake-light camera so you can see what’s happening from the cab as you back in. Once it settles into the head channel, lock it in place with the ergonomic handle and you’re ready to roll—no color indicators or guesswork required.

Rough roads and heavy loads usually mean jarring motion between truck and trailer. The CrossWing’s ShockDrop technology uses a polyurethane isolator at the hitch head pivot point to absorb shock, chucking, and vibration before it transfers through the rig. It keeps movement controlled on uneven terrain and helps reduce wear on both your truck bed and trailer over time.
To get your trailer level and maintain turning clearance, the CrossWing offers three height settings from 17-1/2" to 21-1/2" along with a built-in 9" offset from center. That offset gives extra breathing room for short-bed setups or tight campsite maneuvers while keeping your truck and trailer tracking smoothly. Bed protector supports distribute force evenly across the bed surface to help prevent abrasions and add structural support under load.
Durability isn’t sacrificed for weight savings here. The premium steel body is reinforced at key connection points for strength that holds up trip after trip. A textured black powder coat resists rust and wear from weather exposure, so whether you’re towing across multiple states or unhooked in storage, this hitch stays ready for the next haul.

I am still satisfied with the hitch. I have over 8000 miles and going strong. It does have a little wobble in the head. Not sure if normal and the piece where the pin slides in got bent a little bit, but still working good.
