How to Install Curt E16 5th Wheel on 2023 Chevy Silverado 2500 without OEM Prep Pkg

Published 03/29/2023

Question:

I have acquired a Curt E16 5th Wheel Hitch. I have a 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD with the 6 1/2foot bed. It does not have the Puck System installed. Is there a Rail Kit that I can get to install that will work with this Hitch? Attached is a picture of the Hitch installed in a Ford Truck. Thank You,

Yes, the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit part # C16429-204 is exactly what you need to install the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # 16516 on your 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 without OEM Prep Pkg. It installs rather easily without any drilling into the frame.
