Heavy-duty fifth-wheel trailer hitch has interlocking jaws and color-coded lock indicator for superb safety and security. Torsion head offers easy hookup and quiet, stable towing. Legs mount to Ram OEM underbed platform.
Features:
Specs:
Note: This fifth-wheel hitch is compatible with rotating pin boxes, such as the Reese Sidewinder, Reese Revolution, and 5th Airborne Sidewinder, only when used with a wedge (sold separately).
Unlike slide-bar models, the rounded, interlocking, two-piece jaw on this fifth-wheel trailer hitch inhibits rattle and movement by securely wrapping around your trailer's king pin, resulting in easier hookup and a safer, quieter ride.
Get peace of mind with Curt's color-coded lock indicator. Just look at the indicator - either the one on the handle or the one on the hitch itself - to determine whether the jaw is in the correct position to uncouple (red), couple (yellow) or tow (green).

Heavy-duty fifth-wheel trailer hitch has interlocking jaws and color-coded lock indicator for superb safety and security. Torsion head offers easy hookup and quiet, stable towing. Legs mount to Ram OEM underbed platform.Two boxes del by UPS in good shape for the weight, I installed this myself, while still boxed I lifted into my Ram 2500 to handle easier, installed into my pucks then assembled the rest, went very well, the label they want you to put on driver side you can’t even read, let alone while holding in hand, we will be heading to the mountains of Colorado soon, we’ve always had a bumper pull till now, I’m sure this will work very well, this is 20K double jaw, thank you
Ordered the Curt A20 with Ram OEM puck legs on Friday. etrailer stated shipping would be 3-5 days. The hitch arrived in perfect condition on Monday...simply amazing! The hitch was manageable by myself to install. It comes in 4 pieces: (2) legs, (1) cross member to connect the legs together, and then the hitch head itself. I assembled the legs first and easily lifted them into the bed. I took the hitch pin out of the bracket and installed the bracket with 4 bolts. I then inserted the hitched head back in and replaced the pin. Simple install and the hitch is nice and solid...and does not rattle due to the rubber dampening.
This hitch was extremely easy to install! Although the locking handle maneuvered slightly different than the Curt videos I saw online, the intuitive design made it a breeze to set up. As a first time 5th-wheeler, this product has exceeded my expectations so far.
I have not towed yet with this unit, but I feel confident that this product will be able to tow my 16k lb 5th wheel.
Great hitch! Easy in and out with puck system. Dual pivot points helps with the ride of tow vehicle.
This was a real pain to get assembled and installed without any assistance. The assembly instructions for the legs has a list of compatible heads, and the A20 was not on that list, but it assembled just fine and Curt website said it was OK. Doing the assembly in the truck bed helped by loading in each of the parts and taking off the head, thus keeping the weight of each part minimal. It dropped right in to the pucks without issue, then I completed the final torqueing. I haven't towed with this yet so cannot comment on that part. I was rather perturbed to find out this was made in China. This needs to be stated in the description. I would not have bought it if I had known that.

This hitch has worked out well, and I have used it for towing our 33 foot 5th wheel over 24,000 miles since installation, including the rough Alaskan Highway. My only complaint is that there are several areas of rust popping up on the frame. Manufacturing still needs to be moved out of China they are not our friend.
Installation was easy enough. Works well and haven't had any issues.

Wow. These guys rock. Got my hitch to me in 3 days. Installed my A20 in the Ram 3500 and it fit great. Jesse was my sales guy and was perfect to work with. These guys really understand the whole concept of customer service. Can't thank them enough. 40 minutes to install by myself. Done and ready. Thanks Etrailer.
Very happy with etrailer and the purchase of Curt 20K fifth wheel hitch for my new Ram 3500 that fit perfectly in the factory fifth wheel prep package. etrailer customers service was helpful with questions about the shipment while in transit. The hitch came in two cartons and the assembly was straight forward with easy to follow instructions. The Curt hitch is a high quality well engendered device with well thought out features that should perform greatly for many years to come.
Purchased this Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ram Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs Item # C16044 to go in 2019 RAM 3500 DRW and tow 16,750# 40’ fifth wheel with 3,145# hitch weight. Newbie to 5th wheels and I haven’t taken delivery of the trailer yet so I set it in the highest position. Judging by how high it’s sitting I may have to let it down to the next setting. Easy assembly by myself although it is heavy. Seems well made. No adjustments needed to get it to sit in place. Came in 2 boxes and one was torn but nothing missing. Happy with it so far.
Our experience with trailer was amazing. Their knowledge of what I needed was impressive. Sadly, our Curt hitch got mixed up with another hitch that had come into the shop which installed hitches and we got a different hitch!! It turns out that the hitch that DID get installed, has served us very well!
This is a very good hitch. If connects to my dodge puck system very well. This hitch is much easier to hitch and unhitch than the other brand I had. My only issue is that it is supposed to separate into two pieces to make it easier to move. However, I have not yet been able to separate it.

Still working perfectly. Easy to hook and unhook. I drive a tractor trailer and this fifth wheel releases easier that the one on my tractor trailer.
Camping World told me they do not make this system for 2013 Ram Trucks. Guess they will be surprised next week. Thanks to Justin for his help, shipped and arrived when he said. Perfect fit, easy enough for me to assemble by myself
The install of the A20 Curt 5th wheel was flawless.
Your delivery of two days is amazing.
Included a picture of it in the back of my 3500 Ram.
Very impressed with this hitch . I was a little thrown off by how heavy it really is but it looks great and feels split . The head price is really smooth as it rolls around. It should really help with towing noised and chucking .
Very nice hitch, easy assembly. Haven’t had any problems hooking up, head has play so you don’t need to be perfect backing into hitch. Bought a ram 17 Cummins and this hitch to go with it at same time between the hitch and truck can’t tell the 12000 lbs camper is back there. Very little hitch noise. Easy and fast shipping also. The only complaint is the hitch is heavy! Make sure you have help to remove or install.

Went on 5-6 camping trips this year 2000ish miles no complaints. Never once thought I’d that latched. Installed eye hook and chain hoist in garage, hoist up back under, lower down into bed, fixed that problem of being heavy ha. I will continue to use etrailer for my trailer needs for sure good product and ships fast!
very easy to assemble
get help this thing is heavy!
and don’t torque down all bolts until locked
in the pucks system can’t wait to give it a try
I use this on a 2020 ram 2500, and love it! Hook up is easy and secure, making truck and trailer feel like one! I have not experienced any chucking, since I started using this! Only con is the weight like any 5th wheel hitch, once on truck, I leave installed for season.
Everything went as described. Don't believe they could have made an easier install. Will be hooking to 5th wheel for first time Saturday. Little heavy but was able to handle it. So easy to go together one man can do it without an extra hand helping. Work smart not hard!

Still working great, go camping once a month and have not had any problems
The hitch works great. After 15000 miles of towing, the only issue is the height adjustment. We do a lot of national forest/bml camping. Sometimes the roads are a little rough to say the least. The lowest adjustment point allows the 5th wheel to ride fairly level. But at times in very sharp turns or on some of the rougher trails, the trailer has hit the bedrails. If we move the hitch to the next adjustment, it rides nose high. On the highway, it causes a rougher ride. If we move it to the lowest, it rides very smooth. Although it is only 4 bolts and only about 30 minutes to switch the adjustment, it is somewhat annoying. In the end the hitch is great with easy maintenance.
Only had one issue with the A20 and that was probably my fault. After the hitch had been installed about six months, when the jaws would not close. Sprayed the lock and spring assembly with some WD40 and it has worked fine ever since. If I'm in a lot of rain, I'll spray it down every couple of weeks. Great hitch and would hesitate to buy it again.
Never had a fifth wheel prior to this. We went with CURT after some research and considering cost. Very pleased. Install went well. works well. We like the color stickers - verifying the configuration of the hitch. Highly recommend. We even called CURT directly once when we thought it was not working but they guided us back on track.
In one year the hitch has around 10,000 miles of towing miles with no visual wear.Easy latching and unlatching from fifth wheel also easy install and removal other than being a little heavy.Dampening system does seem to help to some extent compared to previous solid mount hitches I've owned before.
Exactly what I needed. Product was back-ordered so that tells me it's rather popular. Was a bit of a pain to assemble but I anticipated as much because the directions left much to be desired for my particular setup. Otherwise, etrailer.com was very good about communicating and easy to deal with. Will shop with them again.

Thanks for checking in. All is well and have had no issues, thus far!
Bought in conjunction with a Reese Sidewinder pin box and can say this hitch was easy to put together and is very heavy duty. Well made and easy to use and maintain! Dropped right in my Ram puck system with minimal adjustment required. Arrived on time.
