The three 5th wheel hitches that you are inquiring about are the

Curt Q24 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 24,000 lbs, part # C16245
Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 25,000 lbs, part # C16265
Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 25,000 lbs, part # C16180

The only differences between the Q24 and Q25 is the Q24 is the weight limit. The Q24 is rated for 24,000 lbs, the Q25 is rated for 25,000 lbs. These two 5th wheel hitches cannot be used with a rotating pin box. The both have a pivoting hitch head with 360° movement. The A25 is a fixed 5th wheel hitch that is compatible with standard pin boxes. It is also compatible with rotating pin boxes because of a different type of cushioning on the head. Please note, you will need a wedge if you are using a rotating pin box. The warranty is also different on the A25, it is a limited lifetime warranty, instead of the 10 year warranty that comes with the Q24 and the Q25.

I have included product description links, a weblink to our Curt wedges, and video review links below.
