Specs:
Unlike slide-bar models, the rounded, interlocking, 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.
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).
Most often used on trucks with 6' and 6-1/2' beds, this slider helps to eliminate clearance problems during slow-speed turns. When you are towing a fifth-wheel trailer, your hitch must be situated on the cab side of your truck's rear axle. However, at slow speeds you can use a slider to slide the fifth-wheel hitch (and the trailer) toward your truck's tailgate and past the rear axle, creating enough space between the cab of your truck and the trailer to permit less-restricted turning.

Don't really know how this works since the base was lost in shipment and I had to send the head back because I actually needed something that I could hook the fifth wheel to. Ended up spending quite a bit more money to resolve the matter out of town with no options.
What a mess, the item listed is for two boxes listed under one tracking number. Still waiting on second box which they say has a problem. First box was open and in shambles. The rubber handle is torn and I have tried to upload picture but computer is being difficult.
I'll post back after a 2000 mile haul with the 40 RV. Looks good so far...
Have a great day everyone!
Everything went very well and it is installed with no issues. Plan on taking the camper out this weekend.
Installation went smoothly, havn't hooked up to trailer yet but everything seems to work smoothly. Hitch delivery was a day early.
Awesome works great for standard bed
Representative very helpful with the order to make sure I was getting the right part of my truck. Order package well and ship on time and receive in the 3 day delivery window.
Thank you
Great Hitch, very happy with this unit. Have pulled the 18K lb fifth wheel over 25K miles (Florida to Idaho, back to Florida and now Alaska). We have covered many rough roads and challenging situations, without problems and have never had a bad couple.
The hitch indicator on front of head gives a clear indication of latching condition, and the latch handle has a locking pin for added protection. This pin is the only issue I have had, which can be trapped under the slide plate if your truck is at an angle (beyond about 35 deg) from the rv. I make it a point to pull this pin prior to backing if I am the least bit concerned.
This is a great hitch! Excellent quality and it's made here in America.
I sent emails to find out if I could use my Q-24 head on Ram legs since I traded Trucks Shelia helped me said can’t be done. So I Ordered the Curt for Ram puck system. Received it 3days later. 2boxes intact. Took my time assembling. Instructions would be nice to have larger fonts. I depend on etrailer to have the product and the assistance to make the correct decision.
