2018 Chevrolet Silverado
Just what was needed when upgraded from 2018 2500HD Silverado to 2021 2500HD Sierra AT4. These legs are needed due to the different placement of the factory installed pucks on the 2020 and higher Silverado and Sierra 2500HD. I'm reusing my Curt Q20 hitch head with these legs. Good price from etrailer. Package arrived as expected and in good shape. Will use etrailer.com again. 940366

2017 Ram 3500
I bought a 2021 chevy 3500 HD and was surprised that my 5th wheel hitch from my 2017 GMC duly wouldn’t work in the 5th wheel prep. I called Curt and found the solution, buy a set of legs. After researching I found etrailer had the best price. They also had free shipping (a great bargain). They filled my order and shipped quickly. Justin was very helpful and checked back with me several times. Etrailer’s website was extensive and easy to navigate. I’ll be back for all my related needs. 936639

Overall, the hitch works fine. There are some convenient features that make it easy to use and the head seems to work well -- I'm towing a 10k Grand Design. The installation is pretty easy to do alone; the whole unit only weighs 135lbs or so? So, you *should* be able to get in/out of the truck solo. The red/yellow/green indicator makes it easy for a new owner (me!) to feel confidents everything is locked and/or ready to roll. There are only 3 height settings, and that is somewhat limiting but should be workable for most setups. Here's the problem... The two "lower" settings (13", 15") are easy to rig. You can remove the head from the head frame and torque the nuts from above. AND, importantly, when you tighten everything up the unit stays plum so you can set in the bed/pucks with little issue. Took me 15 minutes. The PROBLEM is that on the high (17") setting, the bolts go through the bottom holes in the head frame. Creates two problems, 1) there is a piece of steel that prevents you from torquing from above. Not a big deal since you can flip over and get from the bottom; so, this is a minor inconvenience. The biggest issue is 2) when you torque with bolts on this height setting, the feet get pulled in (not enough frame to keep them plum) so when you go to insert, it won't go. AND, since you can't torque from above, you can't even "loosen" everything the tighten in place! What I had to do was jam a piece of wood to splay the feet 1/8" so they'd drop in. This is not preferred since I could obviously damage the pucks, but also b/c it'll be hard to get out! I wish I'd purchased a different set up. Would love to know if this was just my experience. If not, this is a pretty big design flaw that negates any of the "convenience" this hitch otherwise provides. 928712

Service for find correct part I needed was excellent. updates on shipping are a great resource to know when package will arrive. Packaging by curt is a little bite to question. boxing was ripped when it arrived. This is no fault of E Trailer. I will be dealing with E Trailer in the future. 900195

Never had better service. I live in upstate NY. I was in need of parts to change the 5th wheel hitch over to a new truck. The parts arrived at my house from Missouri in 27 hours. Had my doubts but they came through even in today’s crazy world. We were able to leave for trip on time. 845549

2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500
I have a Curt Q-20 5th wheel hitch. The hitch has served me well, so I didn't want to purchase a whole new 5th wheel hitch. I bought the CU53FR 5th wheel legs,Item # 16029 and installed them in my new 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD standard bed, that had the gooseneck, 5th wheel package. It was a easy change over and looking forward to get on the road this year. 804938

I haven't installed them yet I'm waiting on my new truck which was held up by the virus. The product looks great but in typical Curt fashion the box was split everywhere. Also made in China was not impressive to me. I thought Kurt products were made in the USA. 798114

These legs will attach to your existing head and allow you to install your hitch in the factory pucks.

view full answer... - Difference Between # CU53FR and # C16024 Curt 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Legs for 2020 GM Puck SystemThe Curt # C16024 fifth wheel legs you mentioned fit the A series hitches from 20k and up; the A20 # C16540, A25 # C16580, and A30 # C16590. They're technically designed for the A30 because of the legs's 30,000 pound rating but they still fit the other two. With that in mind they will not, however, increase the weight capacity of the other 2 hitches. The # CU53FR legs fit all of the same hitches plus the Q Series and E Series hitches as well. These legs even fit the A30 however they...

view full answer... - Can A Curt Fixed 5th Wheel Hitch Be Used On a 2020 GMC Sierra 2500It is possible to use a fixed fifth wheel hitch on a 2020 GMC Sierra 2500 but it all comes down to the trailer. If you were using the same trailer on another short bed truck without issue the odds are you will be fine with a fixed fifth wheel hitch. I recommend the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch because of the dual jaw design which is very secure and works well to reduce chucking/jarring and the easy to remove head with only one pin. If you have the factory prep package then you need...

This is a fixed hitch base which is the only one available at this time. That said, it should still work even if you have a short bed truck since the puck system was moved further back on the new models but to be safe it would be best to measure first.
