Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch and Adapter Rails For 2016 Ram 2500 With Factory Rail Kit
Question:
Im interested in buying a Curt Q16 sliding fifth wheel hitch. Looks like its part number C16521. However when I click on that link it gives a description of an A16 hitch, but has pictures of the Q16. Im confused. Is C16521 the correct P/N for the Q16 sliding hitch. I also need the C16022 Ram OEM adapter rails. Is that a correct P/N? I have a 2016 Ram 2500 64inch bedwith the factory fifth wheel prep. Thanks for the help.

Helpful Expert Reply:
For your 2016 Ram 2500 I recommend the Curt Q16 Sliding Fifth Wheel Hitch, # C16521 along with the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider - Ram Towing Prep Package, # C16022. You do have the correct part number. Curt Rebranded this hitch by changing its name from Q16 to A16 in 2016. All of the features and specifications remained the same.
This combination will work great with your 2016 Ram 2500 with Factory Rails Kit.
