Expert Reply:
In regards to a Curt 5th Wheel Hitch, the weight capacity comes from the head not the base so in order to upgrade from a Curt A16 Hitch like part # C16521 to a Curt A20 or Curt A25 Slider you'd a new head, the Curt A20 Head part # C16540 or the Curt A25 Head part # C16580. These will both work with the base for a Curt A16 Hitch.
Please note, the base does max out at 24,000 lbs.
