Question:
Hello - Ive looked at a lot of 5th wheel hitches over the last week or so, but I keep coming back to the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ram Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 16,000 lbs Item # C16520-16021. I am most interested in this hitch because we have the Ram 2500 with the factory installed 5th wheel prep package. We are considering the Grand Design 150 Series 290BH which includes the Turning Point pin box. When I view the product on your page it says it works with Dodge Ram 2500 series 2013 I believe and newer, but then it says NOT CONFIRMED TO FIT 2020 Ram 2500.inch Does this fit my 2020 Ram 2500 with the factory 5th wheel prep package? Thanks for your time!

Curt confirms that the # C16520-16021 is indeed a fit for the factory puck system in your 2020 Ram 2500. The A16 is an outstanding choice, mainly because its interlocking jaw holds the king pin very tightly, which really improves ride quality by reducing bouncing and chucking caused when the king pin moves around in the hitch jaw.
You'll also need the Curt A-Series specific wedge, part # RP31016. The product description for the wedge states that it's for the Reese Sidewinder, but it also works perfectly with the Lippert Turning Point rotating pin box, as mentioned by some of our customers in the product reviews on the product page for the # RP31016 wedge.
If you don't have a 7-way installed in the truck bed, and would like one to make plugging in your 5th wheel easier, use part # 50-97-410
