Heavy-duty fifth-wheel trailer hitch has interlocking jaws and a color-coded lock indicator for superb safety and security. Torsion head offers easy hookup and quiet, stable towing. Legs mount to Ram OEM underbed platform.
Features:
Specs:
Note: This fifth-wheel hitch is compatible with rotating pin boxes, such as the Reese Sidewinder, Reese Revolution, and 5th Airborne Sidewinder, only when used with a wedge (sold separately).
Unlike slide-bar models, the rounded, interlocking, two-piece jaw on this fifth-wheel trailer hitch inhibits rattle and movement by securely wrapping around your trailer's king pin, resulting in easier hookup and a safer, quieter ride.
Get peace of mind with Curt's color-coded lock indicator. Just look at the indicator - either the one on the handle or the one on the hitch itself - to determine whether the jaw is in the correct position to uncouple (red), couple (yellow) or tow (green).

Heavy-duty fifth-wheel trailer hitch has interlocking jaws and a color-coded lock indicator for superb safety and security. Torsion head offers easy hookup and quiet, stable towing. Legs mount to Ram OEM underbed platform.This is my first run-in with a fifth wheel, so I spent a lot of time researching as many of the aspects as I could. I knew I didn't want to mount bed rails, so the truck was outfitted with the factory in-bed mounts. That allowed the use of this hitch. Using this setup allows for a clear bed floor by merely unpinning and swiveling the four locks on the leg's ends, then lifting the whole mess up and away.
It arrived in two separate boxes: good thing, it's heavy! Knowing that, the individual pieces were placed in the bed where it could be assembled closer to its landing place. The instructions were very clear, and, before we knew it, we had the mount dropped into place.
Connecting to the trailer couldn't be easier. With the lever forward and the yellow dot showing through the status port in front, the truck slides back into place with a satisfying "chunk" as the hitch latches on. Drop the safety pin into the latch, make your connects, give one final tug with the tow vehicle so you know the hitch is properly latched, and off you go! Thanks, etrailer!
This 5th wheel hitch is AWESOME!!! It was as easy as the video to assemble and install. I put it together in the living room watching to Olympics. It is easy to install in the factory RAM puck system. You should use a buddy, it is a little heavy. It took about 30 to 40 minutes to put together and another 15 minutes to install and torque all the bolts to specs.

First tow with a heavy trailer went great. Easy to hook it up east to un-hook. No problems so far. Still 5 stars!
As always, e-trailer delivers. It's my second hitch. I always trust each trailer to deliver. Thank you
Superior. My old Reese 16K served me well, but after 10 years of service including the AL-CAN highway, it creaked and moaned when loaded and banged around when not loaded. When I got a new truck that was 5th wheel prepped from the factory I chose the Curt hitch over the Reese, if for no other reason than it displayed first on the search list. I’m glad I did. First of all, the unit arrived in two heavy boxes. The boxes had a few dings, but were in pretty good condition. The contents of each box was packed well with styrofoam. None of the pieces sent to me were bent, broken or scratched. The instructions were pretty straightforward and easy to read. I’m 66 and completed the installation without assistance. I used the formula provided in the instructions to calculate the height of the assembly and the results were pretty much to my satisfaction. I did have to adjust the locking lugs and tighten each castle nut one notch to where there was a little resistance when locking. PROS: it’s solid, no wiggle; the head has a square rubber bumper the fits in the base that keeps the head from bouncing around when unloaded; coupling and locking indicators can easily be see from the cab and provide visual status of the jaws; interlocking double jaws. CONS: none at this time. I’m a happy camper.
Got my hitch on time great service I bought 4 pieces of equipment so far all high quality very easy to use and installation was very easy just a little heavy would definitely recommend as use myself again thanks for your help E-Trailer

very good
I have always had pretty good luck w Curt products! Product was was as described easy to install. Def heavy duty. Other posts were same, meaning boxes sustained heavy damage, but product inside was in great shape. Few scratches but no gonna change my review. Etrailer did price match so saved me some cash. Haven't pulled with it yet, just moved 40 ft camper around. May update later.
Very solid hitch. Very easy to install, but it is heavy. The little chain has already come off the pin that goes through the handle, but that's about the only issue I've had with this hitch. I tow a 13,000 lb. skid steer plus attachments and I feel like the trailer is secure with this hitch. No worries at all.
Shipping was fast for box 2/2. I believe I placed my order on June 30th and box 2/2 was delivered on July 2nd. Unfortunately box 2/2 was the only box that I had a tracking number for so I had to call etrailer. Even though this was an inconvenience the lady was super nice and helpful and ensured me box 1/2 would be at my home by the 6th of July and it was. The legs fit perfectly into the 2021 Ram puck system and was almost to easy to believe it was done correctly. The rest of the hitch bolted directly into place as described. I am more than happy with this product and for how easy it is to use it is definitely worth the price.

This hitch is amazing! I have hauled over 30 5th wheels the past year with this hitch ranging from 5k up to 20k. I have had no issues and just requires basic maintenance to ensure smooth hookup. The price has gone up on this since I purchased a year ago but if I was in the market for a 5th wheel plate for a new truck I would still purchase this exact setup and I would still use etrailer as the customer service is fantastic.
The hitch arrived at the time promised and was easy to put together and install
My experience with etrailer was amazing. They helped me pick out the proper 5th wheel for my needs. RAM 3500 8’ bed dually!
The product shipped and arrived earlier than I expected.
The CURT A25 with the RAM prep package was an easy installation.
I could not be happier with my purchase and experience with etrailer.

It’s been about a year and I’ve hauled several different 5th wheel campers commercially and this hitch is performing great.
Works as it should! Easy to put on / take off! The only downside is also its upside - Heavy Duty! It comes apart in x2 pieces which is good due to its weight.

Works exactly like it should. The only thing that could make it better is if an aluminum one could be made.
Packing was a little beat up but both pieces were fine. Put together and installed in my 2021 Ram 3500 in about a half hour. Easiest one I have installed. Would definitely recommend this set up to everyone
The hitch is exactly what i wanted. But just as important is the service i got from etrailer! My order was delivered sooner than promised - but i panicked only getting box 1 of 2. I called Donna to verify status and within 2 hours box 2 was delivered. Was able to put hitch together, get it installed in truck, and bring my 5th wheel home a week before i thought possible. Works like a dream. AWESOME PRODUCT AND SERVICE.
Shipping was far quicker than I expected, and the etrailer shipping tracker is really nice. Installation/Assembly was pretty easy, although the Curt instructions could have been better. One tweak to the assembly process - I went ahead and inserted the legs into the pucks, unlocked, and then put the rest of the hitch together. Avoided have to lift the majority of the unit into place. As other people have mentioned, the leg assembly box takes a beating during shipping....not parts damaged. All in all, a happy purchase.
This is a great hitch. It's easy to use, smooth operation and offers a great comfortable ride. It's easy to take apart and remove from my truck whenever I need to remove it and I can do it myself if I need to. I would highly recommend this hitch and Etrailer. The purchasing process was easy and the hitch showed up at my door step as expected. If I ever need to purchase a new 5th wheel hitch I would definitely repurchase this hitch.

Its working 100 just fine.
Great customer service and fast deliver y.
Pretty straight forward installation. Note the legs are front and back, the cam locks are different sizes front to back. Heavy as heck for and old guy but breaking it down into the 3 component pieces made it manageable . Nice job on the install video.
Amazing service from eTrailer. I ordered on a Thursday and had it the next day. Unbelievable. Customer service was excellent. Friendly and knowledgeable.
The hitch is easy to use and dropped right into my factory puck system. I have only towed twice with it, but no issues.
Very easy to install everything fit like it should the auto manufacturer should have put these oem pucks years ago
It’s heavy and strong.
Great product, excellent service. Impressed with the shipping tracking status and map. The packaging was outstanding. The hitch assembled easily, even for me.
Thanks
First off the order was super easy and what a turnaround on time. Less than a week after I ordered it and it’s on my doorstep. Good price, information was spot on and they kept me informed of the progress. Could not be happier.
Shipping was quick, system was easy to put together and install. Works great with my Tonneau cover.
Well built and smooth towing

I’m very happy with this hitch after a year of use. It’s very easy to use and well built. This hitch is also very quiet and easy to install and remove from my 2019 Ram 3500.

Purchased the Curt A25 to pull 18k fifth wheel, I do like it better than other ones I had. Solid built. No complaints.
Do you have a question about this Fifth Wheel Hitch?

One-year update: weve now put over five thousnad miles on our eleven-thousand pound fiver, and have had zero issues with the hitch. thats with numerous hitch-unhitch cycles, and a few long, steep grades to pull. The hitch works just as well as the day we installed it. The only shortcoming is its shear weight when lifting it out of the bed. Fortunately, the hitch proper lifts out of the spider mount by simply pulling one pin. That way, it can be removed in two pieces. Its still a two-person job, but is manageable. Thanks again, etrailer!
