How Much Does Curt A16 Fifth Wheel Hitch with R16 Slider Weigh
Question:
Those of us contemplating 5th wheel towing with half-ton trucks need to pay close attention to weights. Obviously, one of the big concerns is NOT exceeding the rear GAWR. Usually we know the hitch/pin weight of the trailer we have in mind towing to help with those calculations. The problem is thisyou dont list the actual weights of your hitches and your mounting brackets. These weights need to be added to the calculations as well. Im not talking about weight ratingsIm talking about how much does it actually weigh when I go to lick it up and put it in the back of my truck. In my case, I need to know the actual weight of C16521 and C16441-204. Thanks,

Does the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Slider C16521 break down into separate components to get into and out of the truck easily? Im looking to be able to remove the hitch between camping trips and even at the campsite for longer stays.
