Secure, Two-Piece Jaw

Q24 Two-Piece Jaw

Unlike slide-bar models, the rounded, 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.


Three-Point Indicator System

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).


Q24 Color Indicator System

360-Degree Pivot

Curt's unique spherical axial bearing provides a durable pivot point that allows easy, 360-degree movement of the hitch head. This ball joint is designed for smooth, quiet operation with less clunking and chucking.

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: Gradie K.04/30/2020

I have ran a cheap competitor hitch for several years.
A manufacturing defect (welded pivot pin) caused the hitch to fail and resulted in 18000$ damage to my truck and trailer.
I chose the Curt 25000# hitch after much research and found it to be very well made and clearly shows when it is properly coupled. It is quiet and operates with minimal klunking and chunking going down the road.
Overall I am very pleased.



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.

Mounted this hitch on my flatbed 3500 Ram and the hitch works flawlessly. Pull 44' tri-axle weighing in at 23,000# with ease. Very easy to use and understand, very easy to maintain.

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.



by: Nate11/09/2018

It is always great to have a store where you know you are getting the best price & highest quality products. Our Curt 25000 lb hitch showed up quickly & the instructions were easy to follow. We have been enjoying several trips without any issues with noises, binding or unexpected loose & sloppy hitch engagement. It is nice to have a strong, clean and simple hitch that provides security in towing our 45’ toyhauler. Thanks for a wonderful product & experience.



by: Jason11/09/2023

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!

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: Eddie S11/08/2021

At this point I am only able to rate the purchase process, shipping process, and installation process. All three were excellent. A few comments: I took the advise of the etrailer associate that helped me in the purchase process. The shipping worked out OK. Freight company had the item on a pallet in 2 boxes. We were able to remove the 2 boxes and slide them out of the back of the truck in a manner I could move them in the rear of our side by side. ( A wheel barrow would have worked fine too.). Assembly was a basic follow the good instructions process. The items were a bit heavy for one person (at 70 years old). It sure appears to be a good design and heavy duty. I expect the important towing function will be very satisfactory. If not, I will so report later.

Great product, fits like a glove



by: Brian 04/10/2024

Perfect fit and great quality.



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
2005 GMCSierra

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.

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.

The installation kit had everything I needed & fit perfectly as it should have. I would have given a five star rating but neither the instructions nor the video mentioned lowering the gas tank which was neccessary on my 2009 Chevy dually with the 35 gal tank. Aside from that the install went smoothly. I would have no problem recommending this kit & etrailer to anyone



by: Kevin S01/04/2022

etrailer was awesome to deal with and the hitch is working flawlessly.



by: Kenton 06/03/2023

The Help & professionalism of Quinn F @ etrailer.com was outstanding. He confirmed that the product was the best choice for my vehicle & purpose, his personal response & follow through impressed me (including an e-mail letting me know my parts were delivered a couple days early). I will definitely be using Quinn F @ etrailer.com for all my RV related needs.

Another success from etrailer! Ordered a 5th wheel rails kit for my Chevy 2500 Duramax. It arrived within a couple of days as scheduled. Even though I didn't install it myself, the install fit my truck well and looks very clean. I didn't get any nasty calls from my installer so I am guessing there weren't any issues. Lol. I will continue using etrailer as my go to place for quality parts that fit well at a good price!

  • Adding a 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch to a Flatbed on a 1990 Ford F-350
  • I do have a solution for your flatbed 1990 Ford F-350 but the Curt hitch # C16265 won't work for a couple of reasons (flat bed height and lack of installation kits that work with flatbed trucks). What you can use is the Reese low-profile hitch # RP30054. It was made for flatbed trucks but will require a custom installation. Basically, one the hitch is assembled you will do the following: Using the 4 square holes in the base as template, mark, pilot drill and finish drill to 5/8” dia.

  • Troubleshooting Stuck Jaws on Curt Q25 5th Wheel Hitch
  • Thank you for all of the information regarding your Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16265 being stuck on your 5th wheel trailer. It sounds like you've got 2 things going on here; the first is that the jaws are binding, and the second is that the orbital pad has been broken. Binding happens when the truck and trailer are parked on an uneven surface and the king pin sits at a weird angle to the jaws and everything gets stuck. The only way to remedy this is to either hook your truck

  • Differences Between Above and Under Bed Fifth Wheel Hitch Mounts for 2020 Ford F350
  • There are two ways to install a fifth wheel hitch on a pick up truck. One would be to use standard bed-mounted rails. Brackets are mounted to the truck frame with the bed rails sitting directly above. Holes are drilled down through the truck bed to correspond with holes in the brackets bolted to the frame, allowing the bed rails to be securely bolted down. The rails have slots in them that allow the hitch to be installed and removed pretty conveniently. The problem here is that once the

  • Will Curt Q Series 5th Wheel Hitches Work with a MORryde Pin Box
  • It looks like you're asking if the Curt Q series fifth wheel hitches are compatible with your MORryde pin box. Yes, hitches like the Curt Q25 # C16265 will work with a MORryde. This is the 25,000 pound hitch that fits into industry standard rails. If you can tell me the year, make, model, and bed length of your truck I can help you find the correct hitch and install kit that fits. Or if you have the factory prep package we may have a hitch that fits without an install kit.

  • Best 5th Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2022 GMC Sierra 2500
  • I'd recommend going with the B&W Companion 5th wheel hitch. The hitch is US manufactured, is of super high quality and provides features like a massive 1 inch thick hitch jaw that holds the king pin very tightly. This allows very little movement of the king pin in the hitch which limits the rattling and banging typically experienced when 5th wheel towing. The latest generation of GM trucks are designed so there's more room between the rear truck axle and the rear of the cab so there's

  • Could Curt Q25 Fifth Wheel Hitch Fit 2003 Ford F-250 for Car Hauler Towing
  • As far as fifth wheel hitches go the Curt Q25 # C16265 does have a higher capacity at 25,000 lbs which would be a great option. But you'd have to consider the weight of the trailer you plan to tow plus the weight of the cars as well. This is just the hitch though. You will need to install a rail kit in the bed of your 2003 Ford F-250 as well so that the hitch has something to attach to. For that you would want the # C16443-204 which has been confirmed as a fit for your truck and would

  • Comparing the Curt A25 to the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Hitch
  • The Curt Q25 # C16265 had some issues with the jaws that the company corrected, so you shouldn't have any issues. The A25 # C16180 came on the market with stronger materials and a different jaw design that interlocked and came with a lifetime limited warranty versus the 10 year limited warranty of the Q25. The Q25 has an axial bearing that allows head movement 360 degrees, so it is able to function differently. The Q25 has easy 2 pin head removal. The A25 has easy 1 pin head removal.

  • Lowering the Front of a 5th Wheel Trailer Towed by a 2017 Ram 3500 with Factory Puck System
  • You definitely want to tow your 5th wheel trailer level! Towing nose high can have a negative impact on tire and suspension wear and put too much weight on the axles. Even though you can make a relatively tight turn now without sliding your hitch back a slider is still what I recommend. Even if you can't get it down the full 4 inches even just a couple of inches lower would be beneficial. For this reason I recommend the Pro Series slider # PS30121.

  • Differences Between Curt A25 C16180 and Q25 C16265 5th Wheel Hitches
  • The hitch jaws that grip the 5th wheel's king pin and the suspension system (for the lack of a better term) for the hitch head are the main differences between the A25 and the Q25. The A25 like the # C16180 uses an interlocking jaw system that does a better job of holding the king pin tightly, making contact with the king pin all around its 360° circumference. This leads to less rattling and banging which makes for a more comfortable ride. The A25 use a torsion dampening system in the

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.

  • 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.

  • Base Rails for 2004 Silverado 1 Ton Dually That Don't Require Drilling Holes in Frame
  • The only rails that won't require drilling a hole in your frame on either side are the Demco Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails and Custom Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Hitches # DM8552012-71. 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

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch and Rails for a 2006 GMC Sierra 1500
  • 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

  • Parts Needed to Install a 5th Wheel Hitch on a 2008 Chevy Silverado 1500 with the 5-1/2 Foot Bed
  • The only Chevrolet Silverado that came with a 5-1/2' bed in 2008 was the 1500 model. 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. Instead, I recommend using the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit part # RP50064-58. This kit is a direct bolt-on fit for the above truck's frame rails and will work with any brand of 5th wheel

  • Will a 5th Wheel Trailer hitch Installation Kit Interfere with a B and W Gooseneck Trailer Hitch
  • You will most likely need to remove the B and W hitch in order to install the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit, # C16418-204. The issue is that the two kits will use the same mounting locations so they would interfere with one another. I have included a link to the installation instructions for the 5th wheel kit for you to view and compare to your current setup. The other option is to use the Hi-Rise Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter, # 9480. This hitch will fit a

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Rails for a 2002 Chevy Silverado and a Eaz-Lift Gooseneck Plate

  • Differences Between Reese and Curt Fifth Wheel Rails for a 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500HD
  • For a set of fifth wheel rails confirmed to fit your 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500HD it's hard to beat the price of the Curt rails part # C16418-204 that you referenced. Curt says these will take 4 hours to install and the more expensive Reese part # RP50064-58 would take 4 hours to install. Realistically they both would take about the same time as they are pretty similar. The easiest kit to install would be the Reese Outboard rails part # RP56007-53 which are the most expensive but they
