Good quality and construction, much lighter than the slider that was removed, quick shipping also.
by:
The A16 Slider hitch mounted on 2018 ram puck frame was too tall for my new ram 4500 flat bed, I installed the A16 fixed legs to the A16 slider head mounted it to a curt gooseneck adapter plate, it made a significant drop in the height of the hitch. Thanks etrailer for providing multiple options for various hitch challenges.

I used these legs to convert a slider hitch that was mount on a ram puck system to a fixed hitch mounted on a flat bed truck to make a long haul across country. Worked great

by:
I had a slider hitch with the Curt A16 head. I replaced the slider with these legs since my 5th wheel is equipped with a Turning Point pin. Perfect fit on my 2012 Ram 2500 !!

Still working great after a year and 10,000 miles towing with it

I ordered these to lower my reciever in the bed of my truck. Originally I had a slider hitch when I owned my 2012 Ram but found that when I changed to my 2016 Ram with a Rambox I needed to go to a Sidewinder turret on my 5th wheel. The combo of the Sidewinder and slider hitch putched the front of my 5th wheel too much for my comfort. These fixed legs were the perfect solution. Etrailer got them to me quickly!
by:
I replaced a R16 roller assembly with the Q16 leg assembly because I no longer needed a roller hitch. Everything bolted right up with no problems. The hitch height adjustment on the roller was a low as it could go for my setup, on the leg assembly the hitch height adjustment was in the middle position for the same hitch height. The leg assembly is probably about 100 pounds lighter than the roller assembly. Removal and installation of the hitch is now much easier. As always, customer support at e-Trailer was great.
by:
So disappointed that this product didn’t come with any instructions for assembly.
Yes, I may be old fashioned but I like to read the directions prior to assembly
One question- how tight do I torque the bolts?? Written instructions would have told me this
Two question - what does the finished product look like when assembled? Written instructions would have shown me that
Thanks again

Sorry about that. I'm not sure why, but Curt only includes the instructions with the head unit and not the legs. It looks like we did already send those over to you, but I have them linked here as well. It will have all the torque specs and everything else you need.

Received these in record time...Thanks
Already installed. I replaced the R16 slider rails. As it turns out I never used them in the slide position. Installing the Base Legs eliminated a good amount of weight making it much easier to handle. It also gave me more room in the bed.
I did have to file a little on the feet and rails as it fit slightly different. Just a little adjustment though.
Big improvement and etrailer came through with fast shipping.
Thanks John F

Very pleased, solid hitch from Curt, never a problem.

The C16920 legs matched up very nicely to my C16515 Head Unit. I found I no longer needed the original slide mount and these legs are much lighter, making removal and installation much easier.

  • Can Curt Base Legs # C16920 be Installed on Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Slider # C16521
    The Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Slider # C16521 that you believe you have can be adjusted from 17-1/2" - 21-1/2" in regards to height. If you were to swap out the R16 Slider for the Replacement Base Legs # C16920 then this would give you the Curt A16 # C16120 which has a height adjustment of 13" - 17". Typically we do recommend using a sliding 5th wheel hitch for short beds like what you rave on your 2014 Ram 350, but if you don't believe you are going to need the sliding...

  • Weight of Head Unit and Base of Demco Recon Fifth Wheel Hitch
    The Demco Recon 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM8550043 is made up of the Head Unit # DM6169 and Base Assembly # DM6180, with each piece weighing 50 lbs, making this most lightweight, easy-to-handle fifth wheel hitch available. In terms of locking it the only security measure is a Base Rail Lock # C23256 which locks the hitch to your base rails. There is no way to padlock it to prevent someone from releasing the hitch, though you'd have to be extraordinarily unlucky for someone to just walk...

  • Curt A16 5th Wheel Hitch Legs for Nissan Titan XD Adapter Plate
    Thanks for letting us help James.

These attach to standard fifth wheel rails and are compatible with your existing Curt A16 hitch head. If your 2019...

  • Curt A16 5TH Wheel Hitch Rattles in Bed Rails When Doors and Tailgate are Closed
    It is not strange that the one leg of the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16120 sits higher than the other. As the Legs # C16920 are bolted to the Head # C16520 with the Hardware Kit # C16125-SK4 you can loosen the bolts to level the legs and even them all out. We also have the Fifth Wheel Rail Sound Dampeners # 16900 that you can place between the 5th wheel rails and hitch to help eliminate the rattling you are getting.

  • Parts Needed To Use Curt A16 5th Wheel Hitch In 2019 Ford F-250 XLT without Factory Puck System
    If the 2019 Ford F-250 XLT does not have the OEM Pucks, then they can still use their old Curt A16 5th wheel hitch as long as it is for ISR (Industry Standard Rails), they'll just need to install rails in the bed. If they don't have and ISR hitch they can replace the legs with # C16920 to convert it to ISR. I'd go with the Curt Installation Rails # C79BR. These are custom fit for the truck so install will be pretty quick compared to the cheapy universal kits, and will work perfectly with...

  • Can A Curt Fixed 5th Wheel Hitch Be Used On a 2020 GMC Sierra 2500
    It 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...

  • Replacement Legs to Convert Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Slider to be a Stationary Hitch
    Technically, you can still use the slider and just keep it locked in the forward position since you'll have a long bed. If you prefer to convert the slider of your Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16521 use # C16920 for the legs. If the old Ford F-250 and new Ford F-350 are both model year 2006 then you can use the same rail kit # C16448-204. If they're different let me know the year of the new truck and I'll be happy to suggest the correct custom install kit.
