Question:

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16115 will work with the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails part # RP50142-58. The Reese install kit will give you what is referred to as industry standard above bed base rails which works with most above bed mounted 5th wheel hitches from Reese, Pro Series, Husky, Etc.
The Curt E16 is a great starter hitch and when paired with the Reese install kit will give you everything that is required to hit the road. However, if the 7-way trailer connector on your trailer does not reach the bumper on the tow vehicle which is sometimes the case then you will need an in-bed wiring harness for which I recommend the Mighty Cord 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Wiring Harness part # A10-7007.
