Availability of Curt A16 5th Wheel Hitch for 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 With OEM Prep Package
Question:
Does Curt make a A16 Two jaw slider hitch for a 2023 3500 Chevy Silverado with OEM puck system? I see you have one but it is for 2016-2019

I'm assuming you have a short bed since you were looking at sliders. The Curt A16 will fit in your 2023 Chevy Silverado 3500 but it will require the use of adapter rails. You will need the following:
-Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch - Ford and Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # C88KR
-Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Slider - Dual Jaw - 16,000 lbs # C16521
If you want a hitch that drops straight into your puck system without an adapter I recommend the B&W Companion # BWRVK3775. The Companion has 1" thick dual jaws so you will still get that 360 degree contact on the king pin you're looking for. The polyurethane bushings will keep things smooth and the non-binding cam-action latch handle will make it easy to release the jaws, even on unlevel terrain. Overall the Companion will give you a much better towing experience when compared to the A16.
