Question:
whats the diff between the q20 and the a20 curt 5th wheel hitch
asked by: Todd C
Expert Reply:
Even though these two 5th wheel hitch are very similar there are a few key differences that separate them.
The Q20 # C16130 has a 10-year limited warranty as opposed to the A20's # C16140 limited lifetime warranty for the hitch and 10-year limited warranty for the roller.
A great thing about the Q20 is that it has a spherical axial bearing that allows it to move 360 degrees which the A20 does not have. This means that you will get a more enjoyable ride with the Q20 over the A20.
Aside from the Q20 having an extra grease zerk fitting and 2 pins needing to be pulled for removal of the hitch head everything else is comparable between these two 5th wheel hitches.
If you do not already have a 7-Way in your pickup I recommend installing the Bargman # 50-97-410 which makes connecting and disconnecting your trailer much easier.
