How To Use Curt E16 5th Wheel Hitch On a 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500
Question:
I wanted to confirm this part would work with the stationary Curt e16 fifth wheel hitch for a 2020 Silverado 2500 HD. We are purchasing a Grand Design 295rl with the Turning Point pin box. The 2300 HD is the 6.3/4inch bed.

In order to use the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Slide Bar Jaw - 16,000 lbs # C16115 on a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 you will need the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit part # C16429-204 which is a direct bolt-on fit to the frame. I also recommend using the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness part # C56000.
Please note, if you are using a rotating pin box you will also need the Wedge for Curt e Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches part # C16991. This prevents the kin pin from rotating inside the jaws.
