Will a Curt A20 Slider Hitch Fit the Same Rails as a Reese 16k Stationary Hitch
Question:
Is there a difference in the distance between the rails when using a standard stationary hitch such as a Reese 16k and going to a slider model such as a Curt A20? So basically my question is if I have rails in my bed that currently hold a standard hitch will I have to move the rails further apart to mount a slider? Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
Stationary fifth wheel hitches and slider hitches are both designed to fit the same industry standard fifth wheel rail kits. If you have a Reese 16k fifth wheel hitch installed in your truck bed now the Curt Slider Hitch part # C16541 would also fit those exact same rails without modification.
