Hey Chris,
The Curt Frame Brackets # C17515 are for standard Curt TruTrack weight distribution systems while the kit # C25RV (17518) you're looking at is for the Curt TruTrack 2P weight distribution system.
The standard TruTrack has trunnion bars that come straight out from the head of the hitch, while the 2P has round-style bars that come down out of the hitch head.
Check out the attached photos to see the difference I'm talking about, and feel free to let me know what system you have in the comments below!
