The CURT A16 is designed to provide a surprisingly quiet ride while maintain superior towing power. It has a gross trailer weight capacity of 16,000 lbs. and can handle a vertical load up to 4,000 lbs. It comes with a three-position coupling indicator visible from your pickup truck cab, an extra wide head for easier coupling and high-strength interlocking die-cast jaws for a secure hold on your 5th wheel trailer. This 16K 5th wheel hitch excels in quiet 5th wheel towing. It uses a fully articulating torsion head, a cast yoke with poly-torsion inserts and interlocking jaws to create stability for your trailer and tow vehicle. These components also allow the A16 to suppress shock and vibrations and reduce any additional noise coming from your trailer. Like the other CURT A-Series hitches, the A16 is coated with a durable carbide powder coat finish. It is tested in accordance with SAE J2638 for safety and includes a limited lifetime warranty. This A16 5th wheel hitch head comes attached to the CURT S20 slider and a set of 5th wheel rails to be mounted in your truck bed using a 5th wheel bracket kit. CURT 5th wheel sliders are built with a solid design to eliminate chucking in the towing position and promote smooth rolling from forward to rearward positions, with no binding. With the slider installed, you can safely move the coupling point 12" toward the rear, allowing your short-bed truck to make turns without obstruction. The slider is comfortable and easy to operate, featuring a lift-style lever that is easily accessible over the side of the truck wall. The lever moves in a more user-friendly, ergonomic motion compared to traditional, pull-out-style levers. Best of all, the slider automatically latches into place in both directions, meaning you only have to get out of the truck once to complete the operation.

Do you offer wholesale or jobber pricing?

Yes. Wholesale pricing is available for legitimate businesses that provide a valid business number or equivalent proof. Ongoing purchase volume is required to maintain discount eligibility. One-time personal buyers aren’t eligible.

Will this part fit my vehicle?

If a product page clearly lists fitment for your vehicle and the description leaves no reasonable doubt, we’ll cover the cost of return if it doesn’t fit. Exclusions apply if prior modifications cause the issue. When browsing self-serve, you’re responsible for confirming compatibility by checking manufacturer fitment data and notes. If unsure, contact us before ordering and we’ll verify it for you.

Do you offer technical support or installation advice?

We help where possible on a case-by-case basis. Most manufacturers include detailed instructions and tech support contacts. Because our catalog spans hundreds of brands, we can’t provide every torque spec or procedure, but we’ll connect you with the manufacturer if needed.

Do you offer price matching?

We don’t guarantee price matching, but we’re happy to review a legitimate in-stock offer from another Canadian retailer. The comparison must include all costs such as product price, shipping, taxes, and fees, and the item must be identical and available for immediate purchase. We won’t lose money to match unsustainable or out-of-stock pricing.

Can I exchange an item?

Yes. In-store exchanges happen on the spot when stock is available. For shipped orders, the original item must be returned first. Once received and inspected, we can issue a store credit toward the correct part or replacement. We can’t send a second item while the first is still in your possession without payment for both.

Are prices shown before or after tax?

All prices on the site are before tax. GST, HST, or PST is calculated at checkout based on your shipping address..
