Secure, Interlocking Two-Piece Jaw

A20 Two-Piece Interlocking Jaw

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.


Three-Point Indicator System

A20 Color Indicator System

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).

Average Customer Rating:  4.9 out of 5 stars   (58 Customer Reviews)

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 Chevy/GMC OEM underbed platform.

Works as it should. Prior to installing this hitch I had never touched a 5th wheel hitch. This hitch is designed to work on GMC/Chevy with trailer prep package. Well they did a great job. I went from hitch in the crate to hitch installed in less than 30 minutes. I would caution that you may need help lifting hitch into bed of truck, hitch is heavy.

Hitch as pulled 5th wheel over 7k miles without any issues. 5th wheel is 12500 lbs. I keep it greased and check torque per directions. Only non positive is the color Tow- Couple- Uncouple stickers are faded.



by:

Definitely a substantial piece of equipment, easy to install although the instructions were somewhat lacking. Quality is excellent and the unit is nice looking. Confident it can handle any 5th wheel unit.



by:

Great Product, Fair Price and easy to I nstall.



by:

I’ve had this hitch for a year now and I like it a lot. The indicator on the front is nice it tells you when it’s locked in and when it isn’t right. The hitch works good and I like how small it is and is easy to remove when I need the full bed.

This is a very nice hitch it works great and i have not had any issues with it.



by:

Absolutely love this hitch. So smooth you almost forget the trailer is back there. Had an old Curt for years think it was the Q24 that I like but this new design with added head movement is fantastic. Great hitch! And thanks etrailer for the fast shipping. Got it super quick considering covid era so great job guys!



by:
2021 Chevrolet Silverado 3500

We received the product couple days ago. Looked at it closer this morning. Everything appears to be intact. It is definitely heavier and more solid built than I had anticipated from the pictures shown. Ordered a new truck about four weeks ago. Hopefully it comes sooner than later with the Covid delays, so that we can try this bad boy out!

Here is what I like about this hitch .... 30 K rating. Well in excess of the 21,000 pounds or so that I will be pulling. Added safety factor. The head separates from the body and legs, with one pin, which will make it easier to take in and out of the box. The fully articulating head and king pin clamp should make for a smooth operation without much noise. The legs came in a separate box. If the hitch ever goes in a different vehicle, I am thinking that legs should be able to be purchased to accommodate that set up and still use the rest of the hitch. The hitch actually has an appealing look to it. A lot or even most hitches are kind of ugly. I believe the hitch is completely, 100% USA made. I cannot give an opinion on actual use until such a time that our truck arrives. Some people said that the packaging was poor and the box basically disintegrated in transit. Ours, however, arrived in good shape. There was foam inside of the box for cushioning and a secondary box inside the main hitch box.



by:
2020 GMC Sierra 3500

The hitch arrived on time. Installation went fairly well. The only drawback was with the written and video installation instructions provided by Curt. The instruction manual and video fails to provide clear guidance on the bolt washer arrangement. There appears to be a standard package of bolts and nuts that must be used with other setups that Curt has and this leads to questioning exactly what you are supposed to do: use the nut, don't use the nut, lock washer with the nut, lockwasher on the bolt side. I went with using the nut (even though the video or manual addresses this) since it provides an additional capture mechanism and torquing a bolt into a plate with the forces that will be experienced by the hitch did not make sense. The first use went great.



by:

Love my A30 hitch. You and the rest of the etrailer team did an outstanding job delivering this part. I also bought my Flexair pin box for you. You guys have EXCELLENT customer service!!! Lewis

Rebecca was very helpful and considerate in helping with problem. I needed a fifth wheel hitch for a 2020 standard box silverado w/pucks. She called Curt and got the right item since it was so new. Great item and a snap to put together and so nice to have the pucks and no rails.

Perfect fit for my 2020 Chevrolet dually. Smaller than the previous one I had in the 2018. This hitch is awesome. Easy to install and works like a pro. Thank you Lori.

2012 Chevrolet Silverado

Purchased for use in a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado. Installation was straight forward. I towed a 35 ft 5th wheel travel trailer about 12,000 miles over 3 months and never had any problems.



by:

Haven’t towed with it yet, but assembly was pretty straight forward. Seems well built and can’t wait to hook up to the 5th wheel and hit the road!



by:

I've owned this hitch for about a year and pulled an 18K lb Toy Hauler nearly 5000 miles. The hitch has worked flawless, and it's easy to separate into two pieces to remove from the bed when necessary.



by:

Awesome company...awesome service...and absolutely love the Curt A30. Overkill for our 18,000 pound trailer, but that's the way I roll.



by:

Great hitch!! It hooks ups every time in a single attempt even on uneven ground. My old hitch could take 25 attempts if the ground was uneven.



by:

It’s a good hitch it was easy to put together latches every time I would recommend it



by:

I love this double jaw hitch. Looks good and seems to be more secure.
