Video Transcript for Review of CURT Fifth Wheel Installation Kit - Custom Fit - C16400-204
Hello, everybody. this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the CURT Custom Fit Fifth Wheel Installation Kit with the Carbide Black Base Rails for Chevrolet and GMC trucks. Now, this is a custom fit part. It is designed to fit the 2007 to 2019 Chevrolet Silverado, and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks with either the six and a half foot bed or the eight foot bed. Now, on a custom fit part like this, I always like to recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, put in your year and model of vehicle, and it'll show if this will work for application.
Now, this kit is a complete installation kit. It allows you install a fifth wheel to your truck bed. And the kit will include everything shown here on the table. It includes these custom fit side mounting brackets here. The base rails comes with all the hardware you need for installation.
Even comes with some detailed instructions that'll describe how it all goes together, and they even include a brake line bracket. Now, the custom fit brackets, I wanna zoom in on those on the side here. These are a custom fit bracket, which are designed to mount beneath your truck bed. They provide these attachment points for the fifth wheel rails to attach to. They have a nice black powder coat finish to them to resist corrosion.
And what's nice about these brackets is they'll provide a custom fit by mounting to the existing holes in your vehicle's frame. You can see the holes drilled in these brackets. They'll line up with the holes on your frame, so it'll minimize the amount of drilling that's required. And in that case, it'll cut the installation time in half when compared with the universal bracket kits that are sold out there. Now, the base rails right here, these are what'll sit in your truck bed.
They allow the installation of your fifth wheel trailer hitch to them, and these rails will be visible in your truck bed. These rails here have a carbide black finish to them to match the color of your fifth wheel hitch. And these rails are industry standard rails, which means they're compatible with the BMW, the CURT, the Draw-Tite, the Reese, and even the Husky above bed fifth wheel trailer hitches. But that's gonna do it for the review on the CURT Custom Fit Fifth Wheel Installation Kit with the Carbide Black Base Rails for the Chevrolet and GMC trucks.

Poorly designed kit.
I've installed several rail kits over the years in other trucks and this is the worst one I've had to deal with. I watched their inline video and tried to follow their instructions. It is supposed to take between 1 and 2 hr. to install, try 5 with 2 people. The worst thing is the way it is attached to the the frame rails. They use U bolts around the frame and a 1/2" bolt in a current 1" oval hole. The only thing bearing the load of the hitch shifting from front to back is the holes drilled in the thin sheet metal of the box. Spot welding it to the frame or drilling an other hole is the only way I see to guaranty it doesn't shift. I should have bought the competitors universal kit.

Solid and well built. Installation instructions could have been a little better. I would purchase this again.

Good product but not a very easy install, I have a car hoist, which makes it easier, you need to take off both wheels . If you have arthritis for get it, send to a shop with flexible kids to install. No room to get torque wrench on rail bolts, tighten as best as you can and check them periodically, factory exhaust hanger welded on frame right were Ubolt should go but will work if installed to the rear of it.make sure to note that cab side rails use outside bolt holes and tailgate side rail uses second ones in from both sides.
by: Jeremy W06/19/2020
Install was probably double the time it say, and that was with a lift and all legit snap on mechanics tools, instructions are kinda vague is some places and you have to use your best judgment but a good product regardless,
by: Bruce04/21/2021
Carriage bolts sent with kit did not work for me can only get open end wrench by frame had to get bolts so that the bolt can be tightened from up above. And only had to drill hole in frame for break hanger
by: Harry 07/24/2021
It fit the way it was supposed to fit and performs how it was intended. Great design! It could have have a few more instructions but we figured it out. Took two of us 3 hours to install.

I like the rails and it was worth the money to get ones that the holes match up to my truck and I didn't have to make new holes. Thank you etrailer.
by: Josh03/22/2021
Easy install, finish on the rails is rugged and hasn't scraped or chipped in my pickup bed.

After a year, the rails still look like new and the brackets against the frame still look new with the original coating. The bolts under the truck have some surface rust but I live in MN so that is expected. The bolts in the bed still have their zinc coating.

See what our Experts say about this CURT Fifth Wheel Installation Kit
- Troubleshooting Curt 5th Wheel Brackets And Rails That Aren't Lining Up During Installation The Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC # C16400-204 have custom brackets that will not work with any Denali models so if your 2015 GMC Sierra 1500 is a Denali then these brackets will not fit correctly and line up with the rails. When measuring the 47.5" for the back rail did you measure from the tailgate side or the cab side? You'll need to measure from the tailgate side for a correct fit. You'll also want to ensure that the rails are equal distance on each side from...
view full answer... - Do the Curt Q20 and Q24 5th Wheel Hitches Install the Same Way on a 2008 GMC SierraThe Curt Q20 # C16130 and Q24 # C16245 5th wheel trailer hitches both mount to the same above the bed industry standard rails. If your 2008 GMC Sierra is a 1500 or a 2500 Light Duty then you can use Curt installation kit # C16400-204. If it is a 2500HD or a 3500 then use # C16418-204. Custom installation kits are preferred because you won't have to drill into the truck frame for installation. They also take less time to install. I have linked the instructions for these kits for you.
view full answer... - 5th Wheel Rail Installation Kits for a 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Xtra CabYes, we have fifth-wheel installation kits for your 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Xtra Cab. There are several different kits to choose from, and I will list each one for you. In the custom install category we have the Reese Quick-Install Custom Base Rails and Installation Kit, # RP50064-58, the CURT Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit, # C16400-204. These kits are custom install kits that require less drilling into the truck frame, and therefore less installation time, than the universal...
view full answer... - What Is the Correct Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for a 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 LimitedYes, I can confirmed that the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit part # C16400-204 is a direct fit for your 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 Limited (Third Gen). The direct fit means that there is no drilling into the frame required. If you don't already have a 5th wheel hitch, I recommend the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Slider part # C16521. The A16 has a 16,000 lb weight capacity for heavy duty towing, a two jaw locking system for maximum jaw to kingpin contact, and a fully articulating...
view full answer... - 5th Wheel Towing Capacity of a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with 5.7L V8 and 3.42 GearsIn order to provide you with an exact towing capacity I would need your cab style, box length, and drive type in addition to the engine size and axle ratio that you provided. If you have a Double Cab with 6-1/2' bed and 4WD or Crew Cab with 5-1/2' bed and 4WD then yes, your towing capacity is 9,600 lbs. Please note that the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Slider part # C16521 is essentially an upgraded version of the Curt Q16 slider which we do not offer so this is what I recommend...

This custom installation kit mounts in pre existing holes in your Silverado's frame. It will give you a set of industry standard rails that are compatible with most 5th wheel hitches. To make towing with a 5th wheel easier I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector - 10' Long item # C56000....
view full answer... - Compatible Air Bag System with Curt In-Bed Hitch on 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500I have a solution for you, but the Firestone # F2430 are not designed to work with in-bed hitches like the Curt # C16400-204 that you're looking at for your 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500. Instead, I recommend using the AirLift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers - Rear Axle # AL88211 (8 ft bed) or # AL88204 (short beds). These are also an air bag system like the Firestone # F2430 you were looking at, but I really like that these have an internal jounce bumper...

The distance of 52-3/8" from the edge of the truck bed to the edge of the forward-most rail is for 8' bed models. If you don't already have a fifth wheel hitch in mind, the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Slider part # C16521 is...

- Distance Between Rails of Fifth Wheel Rail Kit part # C16400-204The fifth wheel rail kit part # C16400-204 that you referenced is made to the industry standard fifth wheel rail dimensions. That means that from center to center the rails are right at 22 inches apart. I attached a picture that has more dimensions of the industry standard rails as well.

- Will the Curt C16616 Fit on a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 Short BedYes. The Curt E16 # C16516 can be used with custom base rail installation kit # C16400-204 on your 2014 GMC Sierra 1500. Since you have a short bed truck you'll likely want to go with a sliding hitch to provide clearance from the cab of the truck when making a tight turn.
view full answer... - Curt Fifth Wheel Hitch Frame Brackets for 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500We do offer brackets to fit your truck. The Curt # C16418 brackets you had looked at are meant for a 2007-2010 Chevy 2500 or 3500 truck, and wouldn't work with your 2017 Silverado 1500. For the brackets only, for your truck you'd need # C16400 which provides the frame brackets and the mounting hardware for the frame brackets or for the complete kit that also provides the bed rails and the hardware to attach the rails to the frame brackets, you'd need part # C16400-204
view full answer... - Will Reese Fifth Wheel Installation Kit Work With Pullrite Hitch On 2013 GMC 2500 We have several fifth wheel installation kits that are designed to fit your 2013 GMC Sierra 2500. The # C16400-204 kit is not a fit because it is designed for the 1500 only. If your Pullrite hitch can work with industry standard fifth wheel rails I recommend part # RP50066-58. This kit cuts installation time in half compared to a universal installation kit.
view full answer... - Air Bag Kit Recommendation for 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 for Use with Curt Fifth Wheel Rail KitThe Firestone kits like the part # F2430, which is confirmed to fit your 2018 GMC Sierra 1500, are the best option since they are the only ones compatible with in-bed fifth wheel hitch rail kits like the Curt # C16400-204 you are interested in. This kit does not require any frame drilling either.
view full answer... - Pullrite Superglide Hitch Compatibility With Industry Standard RailsAs long as your Pullrite Superglide hitch is part of the ISR series then the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches Item # RP50064-58 will work. If you do not have an ISR series Pullrite has an adapter to industry standard rails that you can get. If you want a custom rail kit that will require no drilling I recommend the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC - Carbide Finish Item # C16400-204.
view full answer... - Curt 5th Wheel Rail Kit Compatible with a 2017 GMC 1500 Truck vs 2500 or 3500 TrucksFor your 2017 GMC Sierra 1500, the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC - Carbide Finish # C16400-204 is the confirmed fit. The # C16411-204 is the confirmed fit for 2017 2500 and 3500 models.
view full answer... - Towing Capacity for 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 with 5.3L Engine and 3.08 Axle Ratio I took a look at the online version of the owner's manual for your 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 with the 5.3L V8 engine and 3.08 axle ratio and it lists a maximum trailer weight of 6,500 pounds if you have the 2WD model or 6,200 pounds if you have 4WD. I do still recommend verifying this in your copy of the manual or by visiting a local Chevy dealer with your VIN. If you are looking to tow a standard bumper pull trailer and don't yet have a hitch installed I recommend the etrailer.com Class...

The custom install rail kits are the way to go over universal rail kits as there's no frame drilling needed to install and the install time is cut in about half.

If you are wanting a universal rail kit then I recommend the Reese Kit # RP30035 instead. The Curt option would be easier to install as you wouldn't have to drill into the frame of your pickup. The Curt Above-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # 16055 is compatible with either of the base rail kit options mentioned above. You may also be interested...

It looks like you have just enough capacity for this but you will need to pay attention to how much you load in the trailer as you don't have much left over to spare. I will say there are plenty of others on the road who are in similar situations and it really just comes down how comfortable you feel. If you are traveling across the country for several...

For this application I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Base-Rails and Installation Kit, # RP50064-58. This base rail kit is confirmed to fit the 2015 Silverado 1500 with the 5-1/2 foot bed. This base rail kit will mount below the bed using custom-fit mounting brackets. The Reese base rails kit is designed...

view full answer... - Curt Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit Recommendation for 2010 Chevy Silverado 1500 Short BedThe correct Curt fifth wheel rail kit for your 2010 Chevy Silverado 1500 6-1/2 foot bed is the part # C16400-204 which means the correct bracket kit is the part # C16400 and not the 16411 you mentioned.
view full answer... - Is There Drilling Required to Install Curt Fifth Wheel Rail Kit # C16400-204The Curt fifth wheel rail kit part # C16400-204 will require you to drill holes through the truck bed. There's not getting around that with any in-bed rail kit, but with this rail kit you won't have to drill through the truck frame.
