Features:
Specs:
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).
Most often used on trucks with 6' and 6-1/2' beds, this roller helps to eliminate clearance problems during slow-speed turns. When you are towing a fifth-wheel trailer, your hitch must be situated on the cab side of your truck's rear axle. However, at slow speeds you can use a roller to slide the fifth-wheel hitch (and the trailer) toward your truck's tailgate and past the rear axle, creating enough space between the cab of your truck and the trailer to permit less-restricted turning.
Non-Binding Design
The round-tube design of this slider allows for relatively uninhibited movement of your fifth-wheel hitch. Because your hitch can glide smoothly and easily along the rods, there is less chance of binding.
With straight, flat contact points, as found with square-tube sliders, tension can build between the slider and the hitch when your truck and trailer are somewhat out of line or are on uneven ground. As a result, it can be difficult to properly activate the slider when your truck and trailer are not in a straight line.
With a round-tube slider, there is more give between the contacting surfaces, allowing better mobility of the hitch system. Fewer corners means less tension buildup. Activating a round-tube slider is easier, and operation as a whole is smoother.

Very nice hitch. Works great with the factory 5th wheel hitch setup in my GMC 2500. Easy in and out when I need to remove it. System works perfect with my Montana 5th wheel. 634630
Just finished assembly and installing. Not quite the easiest hitch to assemble but about 4hrs later working by myself it's done. When you order this just know it comes in 3 boxes and will have to be put together. The pieces are HEAVY! Would recommend help. Directions are not the greatest. But with time and patience, it's done. Have not towed my 5th wheel with it yet. Will review on that later. This is a beast. Make sure to torque to specs according to instructions! 757342
Hitch is very nice, although it is much heavier than I anticipated. Had to assemble in place in the truck as I do not think two people could possibly lift it into the truck. The safety cross pins that slide onto the pins that hold the rail system to the GM puck adapter plate are difficult to insert as the slide rail base is very wide. I ordered this over the phone and Shawn at etrailer.com provided fantastic customer service. Thank you Shawn! 628742
I received my A20 fifth wheel hitch right on time one box was slightly damaged and lube plate was missing, I e-mailed customer service and 4 hours later got a personal phone call from them..

Review from a similar A20 in Fifth Wheel Hitch
Excellent service, I ordered my hitch Wednesday around noon, Monday at 3:30 it arrived at my door in good order and was put together and put in my truck very Quickly! I bought a Chevy 3500 with the new puck system for hitches and that is the reason I ordered the new Curt 20A 5th wheel hitch and it works great ! I have bought from etrailer several times and will order from them again if and when I need trailer products ! 373949

Everything went as described. Don't believe they could have made an easier install. Will be hooking to 5th wheel for first time Saturday. Little heavy but was able to handle it. So easy to go together one man can do it without an extra hand helping. Work smart not hard! 694946

I pull a 34 foot Rockwood Signature Ultra Lite 5th wheel with this hitch. It works fantastic. Easy to see from inside the truck when engaged with the kingpin. A little heavy lifting in and out of trailer, otherwise easy to set and lock into bed of truck. 576320

Very heavy duty hitch. Initially had some concerns so ordered the 20,000 lbs. instead of the 16000. Very good service from the etrailer representatives. Had some concerns on how long the delivery was going to take, however they were able to get it to me in a very short time. Thank you to the individuals who helped with my order. Danny 340534

Review from a similar A20 in Fifth Wheel Hitch
Very nice hitch, easy assembly. Haven’t had any problems hooking up, head has play so you don’t need to be perfect backing into hitch. Bought a ram 17 Cummins and this hitch to go with it at same time between the hitch and truck can’t tell the 12000 lbs camper is back there. Very little hitch noise. Easy and fast shipping also. The only complaint is the hitch is heavy! Make sure you have help to remove or install. 614499

Review from a similar A20 in Fifth Wheel Hitch
Now this is what I'm talking about. This hitch is great! Very tough, rugged, dependable for all your 5th wheel towing needs. Easy smooth operation to switch from maneuverable position for those tight and sometimes hard to get into spots. Switching to towing mode is a breeze. This hitch limits that bucking and chugging effect as you tow down the highway. Easy to install and in my case I got the over kill with this 18,000 pound towing capacity. I only have a 13,000 pound RV; however I wanted that peace of mind knowing that I have enough strength and security behind me in the bed of my truck. Thanks etrailer for offering great products. 686855

The install of the A20 Curt 5th wheel was flawless. Your delivery of two days is amazing. Included a picture of it in the back of my 3500 Ram. 486277
Review from a similar A20 in Fifth Wheel Hitch
The product arrived 1 day earlier than promised. The instructions were decent, they could of been more inclusive of the different setups, the hitch and sliders didn’t reference how to interface with the Ram puck base. The rubber gaskets for the slider base didn’t fit with the Ram base due to their thickness. You need a 100lbs torque wrench(I rented one from Orielys). All the parts were present. The bad may not of been etrailers fault, but the boxes arrived like they were dropped out of an airplane. Amazingly, nothing was damaged. 712034

Great hitch, best price around. Would buy another one on a heart beat. The jaws hold the pin nice and tight. 616004
Casey J - 04/03/2020Review from a similar A20 in Fifth Wheel Hitch
The R20 Roller and the A20 Slider were both pretty easy to install. Except for the weight (Those Things Are HEAVY) It was a straight forward install. What I like is the Quality of the Curt Products. They are a very high Quality product in my opinion. I plan on the wife and I and our Two Main Coons are planning a cross country trip. So I am very excited to get out on the open Road and see where life takes us. What WAS a bear to install was the Rail Kit. It required lots of trips out from under 402224

I had a Reese hitch before I bought the Curt A20 and by far the Curt couples and uncouples so much smoother than the Reese. I’m glad I made the switch 870358

Review from a similar A20 in Fifth Wheel Hitch
Assembled hitch and locked into Ford "puck" system within a few hours of receiving two (2) pkgs. I found instructions easy to follow and my RV at a level stance after following pre measurement instructions. Unit is well made and a big improvement over the 16k hitch it's replacing. 866758
Review from a similar A20 in Fifth Wheel Hitch
I'm happy with the hitch operation. It arrived missing some hardware (the four bolts that mount the hitch to the slider and the handle spring), but Carol at etrailer followed up and stayed on it until I received the missing parts. I've used the slider once in a tight turn situation and it gave great clearance from the cab. The handle that allows the slider to move requires some muscle to operate - I can't do it from beside the truck, I have to stand on the tire or use a short ladder. I'm six foot tall. The hitch operates well. I'd say we have made about ten RV trips, so I have gained some experience. It couples and decouples easily - as long as there's no push/pull forces. There's no way I could take the entire hitch out (with the RAM puck adapter) as one unit. But the whole assembly with break down (without tools) into three pieces that can be removed by two people. Only important if having access to the truck bed is important. 865445
