Ellen: Hey everyone. I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com. Today, we're taking a look at the CURT fifth wheel legs for your OEM prep package in your Chevy and GMC truck. these are going to work with that prep package that comes in your 2020 and newer Chevy or GMC trucks. So it allows you to utilize that puck system with an already existing CURT fifth wheel trailer or fifth wheel hitch head assembly. It's going to work with a certain amount of them, so the compatible part numbers are there on the screen.
If you already had one of those and you don't want to have to get an entirely new system to utilize that new puck system on your truck, this is going to allow you to do that and just swap out the legs and use that same head assembly.So you can take a look at it. To get this dropped down into place, you'll have the levers there on the side. Those are going to swing the pegs that go into that puck system. So if you just remove the pin and clip, that allows you to swing out those handles. We do also get some replacement Cotter pins.
If you ever need to make adjustments to the height of this, to eliminate any kind of movement between the pucks and the truck bed rails, you can adjust that in and out. If that Cotter pin gets damaged you do have backups. There are going to be four in total, but pretty easy. It's just a quarter of a turn to swing those out and then remove your fifth wheel hitch.Just going to swing this around so I can actually get this in place without having to reach around for it. Installs pretty easily into that puck system.
You pretty much just have to drop it down in there and secure the handles.Our head assembly is going to fit here in the middle. The finish on the legs is going to be a carbide finish. So, nice black powder coat, should resist any kind of rust and corrosion for a long time. It's fairly resistant to scuffs and scrapes. I did notice one spot that might've been a little bit damaged on the front here, but for the most part, I think that finish is going to hold up pretty well for a long time to come.As far as weight ratings with this, it can handle 30,000 pounds of gross towing weight, and then 7,500 or 7,500 pounds of vertical load.
With those numbers, you always want to go off with the lowest number of any component in your system. So that's going to include the head assembly that you choose or that you already have, and also the truck that you're towing with. So between those three things, go off with the lowest number for any of those. That's going to keep you safe and make sure that everything is up to the task, whatever you're asking it to do.All in all, I think this is going to be a really nice workaround for having that new truck that you want to be able to play with all the new bells and whistles, but you don't want to have to invest in an entirely new system. Kind of gives you the best of both worlds. So you can still utilize that old equipment with a newer style of attachment.It is covered by a limited lifetime warranty, and that's pretty much going to do it for our look at the Curt OEM fifth wheel hitch legs for your Chevy and GMC trucks. Thanks for watching.

These Curt fifth-wheel legs are specially designed to attach to the receivers in your Chevy/GMC truck's factory, underbed fifth-wheel towing prep package. Legs mount in factory sockets.Etrailer is now my go to merchant for all of my RV and trailer towing needs. I recently purchased a new truck and needed a Curt 5th Wheel Hitch. I had the choice between etrailer and a major online vendor. Unfortunately, although the price and shipping dates were the same I went with the major online vendor. Weeks later, instead of 5-7 days, my order arrived. However, what arrived was only the head for the hitch and the legs were missing. I called customer service and was told that there was a second shipment coming and would arrive on XX date. Well, XX date came and went with no shipment arriving. Silly me, I should have asked for a tracking number the first time. Hence I called customer service to get a tracking number but this time I was told that there was no second shipment and that I had received bad information. The order showed complete and had been closed. Due to the language barrier and a lack of product knowledge, I had a hard time trying to explain to the rep that the "wheel hitch" as he called it needed legs to be functional. The rep was having a hard time trying to grasp why some type of wheel needed legs and so we just agreed that we would call the product defective and he would issue a credit that would cover my cost to buy the necessary "repair" parts. Although it was 6:16 PM my time and 7:16 PM where etrailer is located, I place a phone call to see if it was possible to purchase just the legs for a A30 hitch and if so, how much of a credit I would need to cover the cost. Much to my surprise not only was the phone answered, it was not a series of automated voice instructions but a live person, Emily. My next surprise was that she was located in the US AND her first language was English.... In short, Emily was able to tell me that although my Amazon order, which clearly showed Curt part number 16070 (complete assembly) the vendor had shipped part number 16590 (head only). Therefore what I needed was part number 16024 (legs only) to make a complete unit (16070). To my surprise, Emily apologized several times for the problems, delays and fustrations that I was experiencing although it was no fault of hers or etrailer. I had no way to move my trailer until I had the new hitch. Emily said that she could take the order over the phone to get things going rather than having me go out to the web site to place the order. She said that I would have the legs in five to seven days depending on where it was actually shipped from. I thanked her for her help and assistance and hung up the phone. At 6:35PM that evening I received the email confirmation that my order had been placed. And then AGAIN to my surprise at 7:11PM I received another email stating that my order had been shipped and I would be receiving it within 48 hours. Sure enough, 42 hours later I had the legs in my hands. Needles to say, or obviously, etrailer and Emily are the first people I turn to when I need RV or trailer towing items. Customer Service is still King. Thanks a million to Emily and Etrailer...
etrailer was great - start to finish. The regular order updates were very helpful. The hitch feet were easy to install to the hitch. I just watched the Youtube videos for point by point installation instructions.
