Needed to have a hitch that I could adjust to sit lower and this Curt 30k was perfect. Of course I ordered it from etrailer with free shipping and best price around. I love the fact that you can track your order every step of the way. UPS delivered it a day early. Whole process was 5 star1263240

Review from a similar PowerRide in Fifth Wheel Hitch
This is a very nice and strong hitch. The shipping and delivery from Etrailer.com was right on time. There were no delays and it was packed well. I must say the the box with the hitch in it was extremely heavy. I have not pulled with it yet but with the design I believe that it will take most of the chucking out of process. It has a small foot print and I really like the fact that the wear pads are built into the hitch rather than the round one that slides onto the Pin. I will follow up with an update when we make the next trip.1294587

Review from a similar PowerRide in Fifth Wheel Hitch
Traded a 2017 Chevy 3500 for a 2022 Chevy 3500 not knowing the oem factory setup changed dimensions. Had a Reese 20k set up, decided to go with the Curt system. Hands down one of the best choices that I have made in a long time. No comparison on the quality of the Curt over the Reese. E-Trailer was great to deal with. Kept me posted with emails on the 4 days it took to receive shipment.1295842

Review from a similar PowerRide in Fifth Wheel Hitch
You should be fine towing with your Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 30,000lbs Item # C22ER but you'll want to check the weight capacity rating of the rails you're using as there are currently no rails rated for 30,000lbs. If you need help finding out the weight capacity you can reply back with the brand you have and I can confirm the weight capacity for you. As long as your loaded trailer weighs less than your capacity you should have no problems. view full answer...
There is a way to mount the 30k capacity PowerRide to your 2021 GMC Sierra 3500 with the puck system, but you are right that it doesn't mount directly to the pucks, so you will need an adapter for your truck; what you can use are the following:
- Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C22ER
- Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch - Ford and Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # C88KR
The only caveat is that the adapter rails have a 25,000 lb capacity, so you would need to abide by that... view full answer...
The Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch, # C22ER mounts to your bed using bed rails such as the Curt Semi-Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Dodge Ram 2500/3500, # C16301-200. Or the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Dodge Ram, # C16420-204. The attached image shows that you have a gooseneck hitch mounted although you do not identify what model, that may interfere with installation of the base rails I listed. Please note that the Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch,... view full answer...
I may have a solution for you, but it looks like you've got the a Curt Q20 sliding hitch and # C16022 adapter for your Ram OEM pucks, which won't be compatible with a Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 30,000 lbs # C22ER. The issue you'll run into though is that the highest rated adapter for your pucks that will provide you with industry standard rails is the # RP30154, which has a 25,000-lbs capacity.
The highest capacity hitch available that will fit in the 2013-20... view full answer...
In order to use the Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C22ER on a 2015 Ram 3500 you'll want to use the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Ram part # C16430-204 if you don't have the factory prep package or the Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C74BR if you do.
Please note, the installation kit does not have a weight capacity, this comes from the fifth wheel hitch which will be the weakest component of the system since the install kit attaches to the frame. view full answer...
Though I do need to start by saying the highest rated fifth wheel hitch available for a 2019 Ram 3500 long bed with the factory puck system will be the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP37FR, which is rated to 27,000 pounds, I can still compare the Curt 30k hitches for you.
First, the Curt A30 # C66HR. The A-Series fifth wheel hitches have been around for quite some time and the second is the Curt PowerRide # C22ER. This is Curt's brand new fifth wheel hitch. There are a lot of similarities... view full answer...
I recommend to use theBlue Ox Base Plate Kit, #BLU54VR to flat tow the 2020 GMC Sierra 1500. This base plate has easily removable arms that offer a seamless look when you're not flat towing. The base plate bolts directly to your chassis, so no welding is required. This will fit with Blue Ox Avail, Aventa, Aladdin, and Alpha tow-bars as well as many Roadmaster tow-bar options using an adapter.
For the tow bar, I recommend the Blue Ox Avail Non-Binding Tow Bar, # BX7420. This is a 10,000... view full answer...
