Helpful Expert Reply:
For your Curt A16 5th Wheel Hitch # C16521, I recommend the Sidewinder Wedge for Curt A Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # C16992. This custom wedge replaces the universal wedge that came with your Moryde Orbitail Rotating Pin Box and works much more effectively to limit/prevent the king pin from pivoting in your A16 hitch by providing a considerably more secure fit, which is exactly what you're looking for.
