A16 Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch, 16K, Fits Select Silverado, Sierra, 6.5' Bed Puck System
The CURT A16 5th wheel slider hitch is designed to provide smoother towing, easier coupling and greater maneuverability for short-bed truck owners. Combining the proven A16 hitch head with the S20 slider, it delivers the control and confidence needed for everything from weekend camping trips to cross-country adventures. At the heart of the A16 is a fully articulating torsion head engineered to promote stable towing and controlled coupling. A cast yoke with integrated poly-torsion inserts helps absorb shock loads, dampen vibration and reduce noise for a smoother towing experience. High-strength interlocking jaws wrap fully around the kingpin to create a secure connection while helping minimize rattling and unwanted movement between truck and trailer. Hookup is made easier with an extra-wide head opening that helps guide the kingpin into position. Once uncoupled, the lockable handle automatically resets to the ready-to-couple position, streamlining the hitching process for your next trip. A three-position coupling indicator provides a clear visual reference of coupling status for added confidence before towing. The included S20 slider provides up to 12 inches of rearward travel, helping improve trailer-to-cab clearance when maneuvering a short-bed truck. Adjustable anchors create a tighter fit between the hitch and mounting system to help reduce chucking and movement during towing. Convenience is built into every aspect of the design. The hitch head can be removed with a single pin, allowing it to be separated into smaller, lighter components for easier handling and storage. A polyethylene lube plate is also included to help eliminate messy grease buildup while promoting smoother operation. Compatible with many kingpin extension boxes, including common pivoting pin boxes, and tested in accordance with SAE J2638 safety standards, the CURT A16 5th wheel slider hitch is built to deliver dependable performance, lasting durability and a more comfortable towing experience.
