Video Transcript for Curt Fifth Wheel Installation Kit C16424 Review

Today we're going to take a look at the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for Ford trucks. This is a custom fit part. It is designed to fit the 2011 to 2016 Ford F-250, F-350, and F-450 Super Duty trucks with either the 6 3/4 foot bed or the 8 foot bed and without the factory rail kit. Now these custom brackets will mount beneath your truck bed. They do provide the attachment points for your fifth wheel base rails. Those we do sell separately on our website.

It does require the Curt base rails and those are sold in either part number C16104 or C16204. Now these brackets will provide a custom fit by mounting to existing holes in your vehicle's frame. This will help minimize the amount of drilling that's required and it does cut the installation time in half when compared with Universal bracket kits. This part includes both the two mounting brackets, all of the mounting hardware, and instructions, and even the sensor control module relocation bracket. Now when this part is used with the Curt base rails this part is compatible with BMW, Curt, Demco, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reece, and Valley fifth wheel hitches. That should do it for the review on the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for Ford Trucks.

by:

I used the bracket kit for fabricating parts to install fifth wheel hitch.



by:

Excellent product. Torquing the large bolt through the frame requires 350 ft pounds. Needed to borrow a torque multiplier because of the tight space.All other nuts can be done with a standard 1/2 drive torque wrench.Have towed the new fifth wheel 8 times this summer and no hitch issues. Great company to deal with.

Great. No issues with the entire set-up. Have recommended e trailer to friends.



by:

Josh hooked me up with exactly what I was looking for. He was very professional and knowledgeable. Fast and free shipping had my parts at my door in just 2 days. Spent today installing my 5th wheel hitch, everything fit perfectly. Hard to beat their price.



by:

Not as good of a fit as the Reese counterparts I have installed. Had to open the 1/2” side rail holes up. I am happy with the product due to having the additional 3/4” bolt in the center of the side rails as others do not.

Still rock solid and towing my Fifth wheel after a year.

I think it will work well once I get it installed



by:

This fit my my 2014 F250 perfectly. Easy to install. Very glad I bought this to make my conversion from pull behind to fifth wheel. Would buy again and recommend to others.



by:

Easy install except for torqueing 3/4 bolt thru frame. Needed to be 380 lbs torque and most shops don't have a wrench that will go that high. I took it to a trailer shop and they did it for me for $25. Good product. Good follow up from their tech support with questions. Highly recommend them and this product. Saved me a ton of money.



by:

  • Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for 2010 Ford F-150
    The Curt Custom No-Drill Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for your 2010 Ford F-150 is part # C16441. This bracket provides a custom fit by mounting to existing holes in your vehicle's frame with no drilling required. If you also need the base rails for your truck, Curt offers the Carbide Black Finish, # C16204, and the Gloss Black Finish, # C16104. The Bracket Kit, # C16424, that you mentioned is designed for the 2011-2013 Ford F-450.

  • Will Any 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Fit Above the Bed Rails in a 2002 Ford F-150
    You have a lot of options for a 5th wheel hitch but not all hitches will fit the rails in your Ford F-150. You need a hitch that fits in above the bed industry standard rails. So for example you would be able to use a Reese hitch such as # RP30928 but the PS30119 or RP30871 would not. The rails in your truck bed should look like the ones in the picture I have provided. The 5th wheel hitch you choose also will depend on the bed length. For a long bed you would used a fixed hitch. For a...

  • 5th Wheel Frame Brackets for a 2012 Ford F-250
    If you already have the Curt Custom 5th Wheel Bracket Kit for Ford part # C16424 on your 2012 Ford F-250 then you will want to use these with the Curt Universal Fifth Wheel Base Rails part # C16104, not the Reese Universal Base Rails part # RP58058 or part # RP30035 because you cannot mix and match base rails with frame brackets from different manufactures. If you have the Reese Universal Base Rails in your only 2000 Ford F-250 then you can use the Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit...

  • Correct Curt Custom 5th Wheel Bracket Kit for a 2015 Ford F-350
    The correct Curt Custom 5th Wheel Bracket Kit for a 2015 Ford F-350 is part # C16424 or you can get the kit, the Curt Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit part # C16424-204 which are both no drill options (frame). The only other thing I recommend to compete your setup is the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness part # C56070.

  • Curt Custom Base Rail Bracket Compatibility with 2011 Ford F-250 Short Bed
    The Curt Custom 5th Wheel Bracket Kit for Ford # C16424 is the bracket portion of the # C16424-204 bed rail kit for 2011 Ford F-250 and F-350 short bed trucks. The Curt # C16448 bracket is only a fit for 2005-2010 models according to Curt.

  • Brackets to Install Reese Rails in Bed of 1985 Ford F-250
    The brackets you need to install your Reese fifth wheel rails are the universal L-brackets part # RP58314 which are confirmed to fit your 1985 Ford F-250 and the Reese rails you have. You'll also need the hardware kit part # RP58504 as well as # RP58430 and you'd be set! Your air bags would not need to be removed either.

  • Which Curt 5th Wheel Bracket Kit Fits A 2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty?
    I have another option for you, but the Curt 5th Wheel Bracket Kit # C16424 you were looking at only works with select Ford F-250/350/450s from 2011-2016. For your 2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty you will need the Curt # C16204 instead which comes with new above bed rails, as just the mounting brackets are not available. This will allow you to use a 5th wheel hitch that utilizes industry standard rails (ISR). Lastly since your truck does not have the OEM Towing Prep Package you may also be...

  • Carbide Finish Frame Brackets for 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty with 6-3/4 Foot Bed
    Yes, the Carbide finish frame brackets you are looking for are the # C16424. These are a confirmed fit for your 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty with 6-3/4 Foot Bed. I have linked them to this page for your convenience.

  • Industry Standard Fifth Wheel Rail Kit For 2019 Ford F-250 with 6-3/4 Foot Bed
    I do have an option for you but the Curt Custom 5th Wheel Bracket Kit for Ford # C16424 fits 2011 to 2016 Ford F-250, F-350, and F-450 Super Duty trucks with either the 6 3/4 foot bed or the 8 foot bed and without the factory rail kit. I recommend custom install above bed fifth wheel rails # RP50074-58 for your 2019 Ford F-250 with 6-3/4 bed without factory prep package. The Installation rails are Reese brand so you would need to install the whole kit and not just the brackets. There are...

  • Fitment 2021 F-350 Dually
    The Curt # C16424-104 that you referenced is not a fit for a 2021. You will need the Curt # C16424 bracket kit and the Curt # C16204 Universal Base Rails. These 43" Rails are compatible with Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Reese, Valley, and Husky. Their low profile takes very little room in your truck bed.

  • Correct Curt Manufacturing 5th Wheel Install Frame Brackets for 2000 Ford F350 w/ 8 Foot Bed
    For your 2000 Ford F350, the correct frame mounting bracket kit would be part # C16443. For the frame bracket/ bed rail kit, use part # C16443-204. If you already have Curt bed rails, you can certainly use the # C16443 by itself, but we don't recommend using frame brackets and bed rails from different manufacturers. They WILL fit, but since they haven't been tested together, using brackets from one manufacturer and rails from another could yield an unknown weight capacity, which would...

  • Can Curt Brackets be Used with Reese Rails to Install 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch in a 2010 Ford F-250
    We strongly advise not mixing brackets and rails from 2 different manufacturers. The reason is they have not been tested together so compatibility cannot be guaranteed and the capacity will be unknown. If you had Curt brackets before then yes, you can use the # C16424 brackets on the 2010 Ford F-250. But if you have Reese rails you will want the Reese brackets, # RP50082. The hardware to attach the rails to the brackets is meant for one time use so you will want to replace it with # RP58430.

  • Does Curt Bracket Kit part # C16424 Fit the Rails of Curt Universal Kit C16200
    If you have the rails of the kit part # C16200 they would be compatible with the Curt bracket kit part # C16424 that you referenced. This would then work with your R5 Roller hitch as well.

    For your 2011 Ford 250 XLT Super Duty Short Box you will need the Curt Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit for Ford item # C16424-204. This kit is compatible with Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reese and Valley 5th Wheel Hitches. If you are just in need of the brackets and not the rails then you will need item # C16424 the Curt Custom 5th Wheel Bracket Kit for Ford.

  • Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit Recommendation for a 2012 Ford F-250 and Air Suspension
    We do offer just the part # C16424. This is the bracket kit without the rails. For a Firestone air suspension kit designed to work with fifth wheel rails you would want the part # F2597 if you have a diesel engine or part # F2550 if you have a gas engine.

  • The Best 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Installation Kit for a 2006 Ford F-150 with 5-1/2 Foot Bed
    Yes, there are custom 5th wheel installation kits that will fit your 2006 Ford F-150 with the 5-1/2 foot bed. You can use Reese kit # RP50081-58 or # RP56006-53. The rails included with these kits will accept Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reese, Pro Series, and Valley 5th-wheel hitches that fit in above the bed rails. Since your truck has a 5-1/2 foot bed in order to tow a 5th wheel trailer and not hit the trailer and truck together when turning you will need to use a Sidewinder...

The install kit, less the bed rails is available as part # C16424. If the bed rails off of your old truck are the Curt brand, you can reuse them. We don't recommend using frame brackets and bed rails from differing manufacturers. They have not been tested together, and therefore their weight capacity would be unknown which...

  • 5th Wheel Bracket Kit for 2014 Ford F-150 for Use With Pro Eagle 5th Wheel Hitch
    Universal 5th wheel base rail install kits will fit a wide range of vehicles but since yours were torch cut I would not attempt to re-use them. You also do not want to re-use any installation hardware. I did not find specifics about your 2001 Pro Eagle 5th wheel hitch but if this unit uses industry-standard base rails you should be able to install it on a new set of rails. We do not recommend mixing brands of base rails and installation brackest; we have seen some fit/compatibility issues...

I am including a link to the installation instructions on the Reese kit. The Reese installation kit includes base rails and custom mounting brackets and will accept...
