Correct Curt A16 and Slider for 2020 Ford F-250 with OEM Prep Package
Question:
Looking ar this hitch does it come with a way to mount directly to the factory prep in a ford f250 or is that a separate kit? And how do i know if the height adjustment range will work with my camper? Thanks for the info!

Expert Reply:
For your 2020 Ford F-250 with the factory prep package, the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider for Ford Towing Prep Package, part # C16520-16020 would be the correct one.
The height on the Curt A16 is adjustable from 17 to 21 inches (measured from top of the pickup bed floor to the top of the hitch skid plate). The fifth-wheel trailer hitch's height setting is taken by measuring from the ground to the king pin, then from the ground to your truck bed. Then subtract the second measurement from the first for the proper height setting.
There should be 5-6 inches of clearance between the top of the bed rails and the underside of the trailers overhang. See attached photo.
