Video Transcript for Review of CURT Fifth Wheel Installation Kit - Mounting Brackets - C16400
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 2007 to 2019 Chevrolet Silverado, and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks with either the six and a half foot bed, or the eight foot bed. And on a custom fit part like this one, I do like to recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, put in your year and model of vehicle, and it'll show if this will work for your application.
Now, these brackets here were designed to mount beneath your truck bed, and they provide these attachment points right here for your fifth wheel base rails. Now, it does require the CURT Base Rails, which do all separately on our website. It works with part number C16104, C16204, or the C16205. This will provide a custom fit by mounting to existing holes in your vehicles frame. And I just wanted to show you that if I turn this bracket, you'll be able to see the holes.
But basically, these were designed to mount to existing holes in your vehicle's frame. So they put the holes in the brackets here that'll line up with the holes in your frame, so it minimizes the amount of drilling that's required when you go to install this. And because of that, it'll cut the installation time in half, compared to some of those universal bracket kits that are out there. Now, it does include everything shown here on the table. The brackets themselves, all the necessary hardware for installation.
Even includes in this application a brake line bracket, and in a nice set of detailed instructions that'll describe how this all goes together. These parts do have a nice black powder coat finish on them them to resist corrosion. They are designed to work with the industry standard rails that are compatible with BMW, CURT, Draw-Tite, Reese, and even 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.

- Curt Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit Recommendation for 2010 Chevy Silverado 1500 Short BedThe correct Curt fifth wheel rail kit for your 2010 Chevy Silverado 1500 6-1/2 foot bed is the part # C16400-204 which means the correct bracket kit is the part # C16400 and not the 16411 you mentioned.
view full answer... - Do Curt Custom 5th Wheel Rail Brackets C16400 Fit A 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 W/ 5-1/2' Bed?Yes the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for Chevy/GMC # C16400 you were looking at are confirmed to fit your 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. This is a great option as it is custom fit for your truck so it minimizes drilling, and reduces the installation time by 50% compared to universal brackets. As long as the 5th wheel rails you mentioned are 10 bolt rails, they will bolt up perfectly. I included a video of the # C16400 for you to take a look at.
view full answer... - Curt Fifth Wheel Hitch Frame Brackets for 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500We do offer brackets to fit your truck. The Curt # C16418 brackets you had looked at are meant for a 2007-2010 Chevy 2500 or 3500 truck, and wouldn't work with your 2017 Silverado 1500. For the brackets only, for your truck you'd need # C16400 which provides the frame brackets and the mounting hardware for the frame brackets or for the complete kit that also provides the bed rails and the hardware to attach the rails to the frame brackets, you'd need part # C16400-204

If this is the case from the end of the bed that the tailgate is connected to, to the rear edge of the rail that sits closest to the cab will be 47.500 inches on a short bed and 52.375 inches for a long bed (see attached picture).

The direct fit means that there is no drilling into the frame required. If you don't already have a 5th wheel hitch, I recommend the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Slider part # C16521. The A16 has a 16,000 lb weight capacity for heavy duty towing, a two jaw locking system for maximum jaw to kingpin contact, and a fully articulating...
view full answer... - Will the Curt C16418 Brackets Fit a 2005 Chevy Silverado 1500 LD?As the Curt # C16400 brackets are for a 2007 or newer Silverado, I suggest going with the Curt # C16418. These are specifically designed to fit your 2005 Silverado 1500 LD with 6 1/2 foot bed. If you do not have Curt brand rails, I also suggest going with the # C16204. Rails and brackets cannot be mixed and matched between brands and these would mate with the # C16418 perfectly.

view full answer... - Husky Towing 5th Wheel Hitch Install Kit for 2015 GMC Sierra 1500Since you have the hitch already and the Curt rails that mount to the bed, all you'll need the frame bracket/hardware kit, part # C16400. The kit includes the frame brackets, the hardware to mount the brackets to the truck frame, and the hardware to attach the bed rails to the frame brackets. This works out pretty well, you won't be forced to purchase the bed rails that you don't need. To install a 7-way trailer connector in the truck bed, you'll need part # 41157, which will plug inline...
