• How To Install a Curt A25 5TH Wheel Hitch In a 2024 Ram 2500 With Factory Prep/Puck System

• 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

So unless you can get them to put a different pin box on your 5th wheel, we will need to go in a different direction for the 5th wheel hitch. There are other slider hitches available, but they are going to be considerably heavier than the Crosswing. For example
