Will The Curt Q25 Fit The Same Footprint As The Curt Q20 Fifth Wheel Hitch
Question:
Currently have a Curt Q20 on a 2017 Ram 3500 dually 4x4 for the past 6 years. It is mounted on horizontal bed rails with plates and u=bolts to frame. Wanting to upgrade to Q-25 Curt. My main concern is the foot print of the new Q25 the same as the old Q20? I am wanting to leave the bed rails in the same position, as to not have to alter the bed rails and leave the frame mounting as is. It would be an easy upgrade if the foot print measurements are the same. From all the pics online appears it will work? Please let me know. Thanks

Expert Reply:
The Curt Q20 # C16130 and Curt Q25 # C16265 both fit in the same footprint so you won't have any issues just keeping your Curt Custom base rails # C16430-204 in the bed of your 2017 Ram 3500.
