25k Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2025 Chevy Silverado 3500 Long Bed
Updated 08/15/2025 | Published 07/18/2025
Question:
Hello, need your guidance please when time. I have a 2021 Alliance Paradigm 382RK 5th wheel and have recently bought a 2025 Chevrolet 3500 HD Dually Diesel Crew Cab Long-bed to pull it with. My truck did not come with factory 5th wheel prep package and so I am wanting to install a 25K 5th wheel Hitch in the bed. What products do you recommend that will give me proper clearance and height to tow my Alliance?

Hey Daryl, so for a fifth wheel hitch setup that has a 25k capacity I would go with the Curt A25 kit part # C43BV which comes with a really nice hitch that has an easy to use and quiet since it holds the king pin so tightly. It also comes with a custom install rail kit that doesn't require frame drilling as well. The hitch also has one of the wider height ranges of 13 to 17 inches so that will help dial in allowing your trailer to sit level too. Got any big trips planned?
