Can You Move A Curt 20K 5th Wheel Hitch Between Two Different Vehicles?
Question:
Can I take a curt 20 thats for a check truck, can I mount it on the rails that bolt down on the inside of my truck bed
asked by: Randy
Expert Reply:
I believe you're asking if you can take your:
-Curt Q20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16130,
-Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16140,
Or
-Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R20 Slider # C16541,
And transport it from one truck and put it in another, and if that's what you're asking then yes you can. All of those hitches will mount to industry standard, above bed rails so it doesn't matter what vehicle those rails are in.
Now if the truck your pulling your hitch from has the OEM prep package, then I would say no you can't swap them between each other without knowing more. Those hitches that drop into the prep packages are made to be used with certain puck systems for select years, makes, and models of trucks and may not be compatible.
If you're able to provide more information on what you have, and more detail of what you're wanting to do, I'd be happy to help you further.
