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.

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.

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: 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.

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: 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!



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: 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.

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: 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

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 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.

Very satisfied with the 5th wheel hitch and the kit I received to install onto my 2002 GMC Sierra. The online videos really helped I will recommend this set up to anyone I know who is considering a 5th wheel tow package

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

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

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.

  • Recommended 5th-Wheel Hitch for 2005 and 2006 Dodge Ram 3500 w/ 6 Foot Bed
  • The Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16265 referenced in your question is compatible with standard, above-bed base rails. If there are standard, above-bed base rails installed on both the 2005 and 2006 Dodge Ram 3500, then this hitch will technically fit either truck. However, since you mentioned that your truck has a shorter, 6 foot bed, it is instead recommended to use a sliding 5th-wheel hitch in order to provide proper clearance when making turns. I recommend looking at the Curt

  • 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

  • Recommended Industry Standard Rail Adapters for Gooseneck Hitches
  • Yes, but it depends on what kind of gooseneck set up you have in your 2013 Silverado. The Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # C16265 needs a set of industry standard rails and there are adapters for gooseneck receivers. I saw you were looking at B&W 5th wheel hitches. If you have one the B&W Turnover ball systems with the square receiver you will want the Curt X5 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter for B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Trailer Hitches item # 16310.

  • Compatibility of Curt C16265 Q25 5th Wheel Hitch With Husky Bed Rails
  • Husky hitches use industry standard bed rails, which is also what the Curt Q25, part # C16265 are compatible with. The Curt Q25 will work perfectly with your existing bed rails. I'll provide a photo showing the mounting slot spacing of industry standard bed rails, which you can compare to your existing Husky bed rails. If you don't already have a 7-way trailer connector installed in your truck bed, you can install one using part # C56000. I've linked to some product videos that

  • What Is The Pin Weight Capacity Of The Curt Q25 5th Wheel Hitch?
  • The vertical load limit of the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16265 is 6,250-lbs. Vertical load limit is going to be the maximum amount of weight it can handle being pressed into it, which is virtually the same as king pin weight. This 5th wheel hitch has a maximum towing capacity of 25,000-lbs and will work with standard ISR rails, however if you have the OEM prep package then you're also going to need the: -Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch # C88KR which will allow you

  • Can Curt Fifth Wheel Hitch part # C16265 Fit 2006 Dodge Ram 3500
  • The Curt Q25 fifth wheel hitch part # C16265 that you referenced can be used easily in the bed of your 2006 Dodge Ram 3500 long bed. What you need is a fifth wheel rail kit installed in the bed of your truck though. For that we have the part # C16420-204 which is a custom fit kit designed for your truck. A custom install rail kit like this will install in about half the time as a universal install rail kit and will minimize drilling.

  • Replacement 3 Inch Goosneck Ball for Unknown Gooseneck Hitch on 2008 Ford F-350 Long Bed
  • Gooseneck hitches typically use a 2-5/16 inch ball, but occasionally you'll see a 3 inch. Without knowing the manufacturer and model or part number of your gooseneck hitch, I wouldn't be able to speculate on a replacement ball. You can look at the underside of the hitch and see if there are any part numbers or manufacturer info, and reply with any info you can find and I'd be happy to see if anything we offer would be compatible. Lacking that information, my best recommendation for you

  • 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

  • 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

This and other 5th wheel hitches use an industry-standard configuration (see photo please). Do note that the 22-inch front-to-back rail spacing is rounded up (from 21-11/16-inches) which is the industry-standard center-to-center slot spacing.

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.

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

  • Does The Heat Shield Have To Be Cut Out When Installing Item # C16418-204 On A 2008 GMC Sierra

  • In order to choose a replacement pin box for your '89 Featherlite Holiday Rambler you can either look for a pin box number on your current pin box (like 1621 or 0719 for example) but if you can't locate a number the next best thing to do is take measurements of your pin box.

  • Is There a Way To Match 5th Wheel Install Kit Up with Holes Already on 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500
  • I don't have a way to know what was installed on the truck previously, even with bolt hole measurements to match up to but I do have some bolt-on fifth wheel hitch install kits that will line up with holes already in the frame from the factory such as the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GM part # C16418-204 which is what I recommend. This kit will then allow you to use pretty much any above bed fifth wheel hitch like one from Reese, Curt, Husky etc.

  • Curt does not offer a fifth wheel rail kit fit for the 5-1/2 foot bed version of your 2008 GMC Sierra 1500. The good news is that Reese does and a Curt hitch would fit them just fine. For that you would want the part # RP50064-58 which is a confirmed fit.

  • Base Rail Kit for a 2008 GMC Sierra 2500HD

  • 5th Wheel Hitch for 2002 Silverado 2500 HD with 6-1/2-foot Bed
  • The best type of truck to pull a larger 5th wheel trailer such as a 39-foot Jayco is a 1-ton long-bed. Long beds avoid the issue of too little turning clearance and 1-tons will have the power needed to pull a heavy trailer without strain. They also avoid the need for slider hitches which usually require you to get out of the truck to release the slide before making a tight turn in a campground. Trucks with a 6-1/2-foot bed will require you to use a sliding type hitch unless the trailer

  • Recommended In-Bed 7-Way Connector For A 2024 Chevy Silverado 3500
  • Chevy lists a Curt wire harness (part number 19352640) on their site but has used Pollak as the standard for many years and would be the same size. The Pollak 5th Wheel / Gooseneck T-Connector with 7-Pole # PK11893-11932 is a confirmed fit for your vehicle and should fit the hole without drilling, if it is in fact for a 7-way connector.

  • Base Rails Needed for 2004 Chevy Silverado 2500 with Brackets Already Installed
