Question:

I have a 2023 f150 short bed. I typed in my info and it says the C16424-104 will fit. However The installation instructions says it is for F250. Will this be the correct fit for my truck?

I checked with Curt, the correct Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for a 2023 Ford F-150 is part # C93WR. This is an excellent kit that has everything you need to install a fifth wheel hitch like the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with S20 Slider part # C23DR which is what I recommend. If you are just looking for something to get you by however, the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with S20 Slider part # C95DR is a good option.

The Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit is a custom fit so there's no drilling into the bed.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
