High quality, heavy duty system. Bolted right in and instructions were easy to follow. I feel good about pulling our camper with this set up. Only issue was shipping, the box was damaged and was missing the pins that were ordered. But customer service quickly got thing fixed and resent.
by: Marlon05/26/2023
Nice well made with thick material. Time would tell how sturdy it is. Easy to install, clear instructions with everything you need for it. (Nuts and bolts).
This is my second mounting kit that I get for my trucks.
by: Jacob06/29/2022
Upon delivery the box was a little banged up. Everything was inside was still in good condition. To my time with install to insure proper alignment, the only thing I can say negative about it is, you need 4 additional 3/4 inch washers for the frame bracket bolts that are not included, at least I did! On both sides. In the end it was a rather easy success.

2004 Chevrolet Silverado
2004 Chevy Silverado 2500HD, installed the Custom 5th Wheel Installation kit along with the Q16 Slider Hitch. Product arrived very quickly after ordering. It was shipped in 3 different boxes. One box was a little beat up during shipping, but all of the parts were there and undamaged. I watched the installation video once, then my brother-in-law and I tackled the job which took us about 2 hours. This was not difficult to install other than trying to get the 1/2" bolt through the hole on the driver side of the frame (the frame is boxed there). The included wire guide helped, but you still have to manipulate the bolt into the right position in a very tight spot. Everything turned out to be a perfect fit, no modifications needed. Also, I removed both rear wheels before starting which gave us plenty of working room. I have purchased from etrailer in the past and will continue to use them in the future.

Ive been using this fifth wheel set up for about 5 months now and I don't have any complaints. I pull a 2022 Heartland Cyclone 4006 toyhauler fifth wheel. Loaded down its usually weighing between 18 to 20,000 lbs depending on what we are hauling.

Installed on my 2005 Chevrolet 2500. Used install videos from your website and had no problems at all installing. Fast shipping also. Thank you for a great website!
by: Keagan09/11/2022
This kit is perfect! Comes with everything you need with easy to install instructions. I’d recommend this and other etrailer products. They match all factory specs. Simple and easy

Well built. Some bolts are a bugger to get tightened up but not bad. Didn't remove the heat shield.
by: Chris09/10/2021
Ordering from etrailer was a great decision! I got a confirmation email for my order within minutes and an email it had shipped in just a few hours. I was given an expected delivery date and it actually showed up a day early. I’m super impressed with the customer service! I bought a fifth wheel hitch and found an [online] video for my truck and hitch that was extremely helpful, especially since all the RV dealers in the area were two months out to install it. All in all dealing with etrailer has been a great experience and I will definitely be going back for any of my other RV needs!
by: Terry06/17/2022
Easy to order from etrailer with fast shipping. Ordered on Mon estimated delivery on Fri but came in only 2 days for a deliver Wed. Curt A25 hitch packaged very well good instruction easy assembly on tailgate filling installed and torqued in less that 30 mins.
by: James09/11/2021
It is well built. Directions could have better illustrations. Putting handle together was the most difficult part of process. It dropped right into my existing rails. Have not hooked my fifth wheel yet, but very satisfied with the finished product.
by: Todd01/27/2024
The hitch has worked well for us . I wish it would go up 2 inches higher as it is close to the box have not had any problems though

Had an issue with my bank denying my order of two of the same items. Talked to Adam with customer service and he was fantastic. He got everything straightened out and received my order in less than two days
by: Gary 11/08/2023
I could not be happier. It's solid, no sway while towing and no banging when I hit the brakes. Great product and I would highly recommend it!
by: Mark J09/28/2023
The hitch arrived as promised and in perfect condition. Couldn’t ask for better customer service. Looking forward to towing with the Curt A25.
I’ll amend this review after I tire with it. Super happy with etrailer!!
by: 08/26/2023
Packing was horrible. Smaller box inside a bigger box just bouncing around that created a big hole. All the bolts and nuts came free from packaging and were all over. Not to mention the ones that got lost.
by: Jaroslaw04/24/2024
Great product, fits like a glove
by: Samuel09/16/2021
It was poor delivered and packaged. I don’t even know if all the parts are in there yet till tomorrow. There was a huge hole delivered and they even tried to patch up the box. SMH

Great customer service, thanks for the help…
by: Jeremiah 09/23/2016
Very strong product I would give five stars except the instructions would not be good for an every day truck owner but the E trailer video is really good the only issue with a long bed is you have to drill 4 holes in the front of the frame two on each side and be aware if you do have a long bed truck you will need a big drillbit for instants I used a 7/8 but the overall product is good shipping was great could not imagine having to install the universal brackets and this kit made it so much easier

Update I have probably put about 5000 miles of towing With this kit I have not had an issue with it still looks good no rust all the bolts are still tight
by: Jeff M.06/23/2014

I wish I could give two ratings for this kit, one for quality of product, and one for quality of fit and instruction. The product quality, once it is installed is very nice and heavy duty.
The instructions, and the fit on my 2005 GMC one ton dually leave a lot to be desired. They say it should take about 90 minutes to install. Plan on about 8 hours if you don't have a lift, and plan on drilling 3/4 inch holes in the frame rails. You better have access to a compressor, cut off wheel, 1/2 inch impact gun, 1/2 inch drill motor and 3/4 drill or reamer. This is NOT for the average "weekend warrior" with a small set of hand tools to install.

Very heavy duty. Very secure. No problems aside from the initial installation. Nice setup.
by: James07/04/2020
Just received this and haven't installed it yet. I plan to add it to my truck in about 2 weeks. This is exactly the same as my last truck which was a perfect fit. It also worked great pulling my 35-foot fifth wheel RV. I look forward to the same quality as before, perfection.

- Recommended Fifth Wheel Hitch With 25000lb Towing Capacity For 2021 Ford F-250 With OEM Prep Pkg
- I have another option but currently there are no Curt Fifth Wheel hitches with a towing capacity of at least 25000lbs that work with the OEM Prep Package on your 2021 Ford F-250 Short Bed.
Since your Grand Design has a turning point rotating pin box you will be able to use a Fixed Hitch instead of a slider which is commonly needed for short bed trucks. I recommend the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Towing Prep Package- Single Jaw - 27,000 lbs # RP30922 due to its 27000lb towing

- The Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16180 and the Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16265 are both fantastic hitches and extremely similar to each other. Both will provide a 25,000 pound towing weight capacity, an interlocking 2-Jaw system for a secure connection, and a 4 inch height adjustment.
The primary difference between the two models is that the A25 # C16180 is essentially an upgraded version of the Q25. The head on the A25 hitch is constructed of stronger material and addresses/resolves

You can use your Reese rails as long as they are Industry Standard Rails (ISR). I will attach a photo to show you what the ISR looks like.

- The Curt A25 5th wheel hitch you'd looked at, part # C16180 weighs about 120 lbs, and the necessary # C88KR base rail to puck adapter weighs right at 70 lbs.
The hitch is a bit heavy, but its weight can be significantly reduced by removing the hitch from the head, which is done by pulling one clevis pin. This breaks the hitch down into two pieces that are more easily handled.

- To install the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16180 on your 2021 Ford F-450 with the factory puck/prep system you will need the Adapter # C88KR.
We do have the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16036 which will fit into your factory pucks without an adapter.
view full answer... - Difference Between Curt A25 and Q25 5th Wheel Hitches
- The difference between the Curt A25 part # C16180 and the Curt Q25 part # C16265 is the jaw system. I have attached a photo for your reference. The A25 is an upgraded version of the Q25 because of it's interlocking jaw. The A25 interlocking jaw results in full contact with the king pin on the fifth wheel which reduces the rattle and chucking you may experience with a looser king pin connection. Although both options are great fifth wheel hitches with 25,000 lbs of towing capacity, the A25

- For the best and highest weight capacity 5th-wheel hitch we carry for your long-bed 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 without OEM pucks, I recommend the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw # C16180. Not only does the A25 come with a 25,000 pound maximum towing capacity and a 6,250 pound maximum vertical weight capacity, it comes with a dual-jaw design which has a better king pin connection and quieter ride than sliding jaw models. In addition, it comes with a 3-point indicator system that

- The difference in the Curt Q24, the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16265, and the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16180 is that the Curt Q24 is the only hitch out of the 3 hitches that is a sliding hitch.
These hitches are seen mainly on trucks with a short bed. Reason being, is the clearance needed to make sharp turns is out of the question without impacting the cab of the vehicle due to its mounting location. The slider allows the hitch to slide back giving additional room
view full answer... - Comparing Curt A-25 and Q-25 5th Wheel Hitches
- There are a few differences between the Curt A25 part # C16180 and Curt Q25 part # C16265. The most notable is the jaw design. The A-Series has a dual interlocking jaw system which forms a much tighter grip on the kin pin therefore provides a smoother ride. The Q-Series has dual locking jaws but they don't interlock. The A-Series also has a one pin head removal system which helps when frequently installing or removing the hitch. The dampening mechanism built-into the head is different as

- Thanks for reaching out!
The 5th wheel hitch I recommend for the OEM puck system on your 2023 Ford F-450 Super Duty is the Curt A25 # C16180 which connects to the pucks using the Adapter Rails # C88KR.
I really like the A25 because it has dual interlocking jaws that wrap around the king pin and provide 360 degree contact, as well as a fully articulating torsion head. With these features you get a really smooth and secure towing experience.

- You can absolutely convert your standard Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16180 to a sliding 5th wheel hitch.
Since it mounts to standard base rails, all you need is the Curt R24 Round Tube Slider # C16570.
Though it says it is for the Q-Series, Curt has confirmed for us that the A25 head unit has the same bolt pattern and that it will fit this slider base. I have added a link to a video review for you to check out as well.

- The lowest profile fifth wheel hitch option we offer for a 2017 Ford F-250 without OEM Prep Package is the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16180 (long bed) or Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # 16516 (short bed) which measures 13" and 15" respectively from the base to the top of the skid plate at the lowest setting. Then, you'd add about another 1" for the B&W Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit for Ford part # BWRVK2402.

- Yes, the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16180 will sit in the center of the rails. If you take a look at the diagram I've added you can see where you would need to install the Curt Brackets and Base Rails # C16448-204 on your 2008 Ford F-250 or F-350 and where the center line of the hitch is in relation to the brackets.
view full answer... - Fifth Wheel Hitch with Higher Weight Capacity than Curt E16 Hitch
- Since your Curt E16 hitch now that means you have industry standard fifth wheel rails and can easily install a hitch with a higher weight capacity like the Curt A25 part # C16180 which has a 25k capacity. This has a much nicer jaw design than what your current hitch has so it will be much smoother and quieter as well as easier to operate.
view full answer... - Can Reese Elite Fifth Wheel Hitch be Adapted to Fit Above Bed Rails
- The Reese Elite hitches do not have a set of legs that can replace what they come with to allow them to fit above-bed rails like you mentioned. If you wanted a similarly rated fifth wheel hitch that does fit above bed rails I would recommend the Curt A25 part # C16180. This hitch holds the king pin tighter than the Elite hitch so the ride quality would be smoother, the hitch is lighter, and overall very high quality and easy to use.

The custom-fit brackets mount to existing holes in your Ram's frame. This minimizes drilling and measuring. This kit will provide you with a set of industry standard rails that have a 18,000 lbs capacity.

For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle

- Since you're looking at base rail kits I'm assuming you're looking the brackets that mount the rails to the frame of your Sierra. If your have Curt rails ( # C16104 or # C16204) then you'll need part # C16400 for a 1500 or part # C16411 for a 2500/3500. If you have different rails I would need to know the exact model in order to find the appropriate brackets.

- Your Pullrite hitch model 3300 is a type that uses industry-standard above-bed base rails that will accept a compatible 5th wheel hitch from any brand. I recommend a custom-fit install kit since this will reduce drilling requirements and overall installation time. You can use Curt kit # C16418-204 in your 2001 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 short bed.
For an in-bed 5th wheel wiring harness you can use kit # C56000 which installs simply by plugging in at your existing 7-way.
view full answer... - Can 2001 GMC Sierra Short Bed Tow Fifth Wheel Trailer
- I looked up the towing capacity of your 2001 GMC Sierra and it would be capable of towing a fifth wheel trailer that weighs between 8,100 and 9,300 lbs without requiring upgrades beyond adding a fifth wheel rail kit so that you could install a hitch. I have to recommend you confirm this capacity with your owners manual or a GM dealer.
For a fifth wheel rail kit a custom install kit like the part # C16418-204 would be the way to go as it would minimize install time and frame drilling.

This kit mounts to the existing holes in your frame. The only tradeoff is the higher price point. If you don't mind the additional cost then this is the way to go. If you would like to save some money and don't mind drilling 2 extra holes then I would stick with the # C16418-204

- There would've been a package that whoever was the original owner could've selected that gave them in bed rails to tow a 5th wheel. Seeing as though that's long gone, you're going to have to add them yourself with the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC # C16418-204.
I also recommend adding the 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Plug # 50-97-410 to the bed of your truck. This is going to make hooking and unhooking your 5th wheel so much easier and

If you have a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with the 5-1/2' bed then I do have a custom kit with above bed base rails for you but the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit part # C16418-204 will not work.
