Curt A25 vs Q24 Fifth Wheel Hitches for Commercial Campers on 2018 Ram 3500
Published 09/17/2020 >
Question:
I'm interested in Curt A25 and Q24 5th wheels. I transport commercial campers. Which would be the best for my application?

Expert Reply:
Between the two, I recommend the Curt A25 # C16046 over the Q24 # C16545-16021.
Both are great fifth wheel hitches that are compatible with your truck and would certainly fit your needs for hauling commercial campers. They are both made for trucks with an OEM Prep Package, making installation very simple and can both haul up to 24,000 lbs. However, the A25 is the upgraded version of the Q-Series. It features a sturdier locking jaw mechanism and is about 15 lbs lighter than the Q24. Also, the A25 can support up to 6,250 lbs of vertical load, compared to the 6,000 lbs vertical load limit on the Q24. Check out the videos linked below for installation details on both models.
