I have a few different options for you to use a Curt A16 5th wheel hitch with your 2017 Ram 2500 puck system, but the Adapter Rails # C16022 are only designed to work with Curt sliding 5th wheel hitches so it won't be compatible with the fixed A16 # C16120 you referenced.
I'm not sure what you already have (the hitch or the adapter rails) so I'll list out the different combinations below.
If you already have the adapter rails:
- Adapter Rails # C16022
- Curt A16 Slider # C16521
If you already have the Curt A16 hitch:
- Fixed Curt A16 # C16120
- Curt OEM Hitch Legs # C16021 (makes the legs directly compatible with the puck system)
If you have neither as of yet:
- Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ram Towing Prep Package # C16520-16021
Let me know if you have any other questions!
