How is the Custom Wedge for Curt A16/A20 5th Wheel Hitches Different from the Universal Wedge
Question:
what is the difference between this wedge and the universal wedge that came with my sidewinder
asked by: Zach R
Expert Reply:
The universal wedge # 201100 that comes with the Sidewinder is designed to fit as many hitches as possible which means that it isn't a great fit for any one hitch. Wedge # C16992 for the Curt A series 5th wheel hitches is designed to fit those hitches specifically meaning a better fit than the universal wedge can give. This means that when you use the custom wedge with the appropriate hitch the Sidewinder will function better without any slop between the wedge and the hitch.
