Parts Needed To Use Curt A16 5th Wheel Hitch In 2019 Ford F-250 XLT without Factory Puck System
Question:
2019 Ford F250 XLT, wants a 5th wheel hitch, had a Curt A16K hitch in his old truck. All I can find is a Curt hitch to be used if the truck came with the puck system installed. What other options might there be if the truck does not have the puck system? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
If the 2019 Ford F-250 XLT does not have the OEM Pucks, then they can still use their old Curt A16 5th wheel hitch as long as it is for ISR (Industry Standard Rails), they'll just need to install rails in the bed. If they don't have and ISR hitch they can replace the legs with # C16920 to convert it to ISR.
I'd go with the Curt Installation Rails # C79BR. These are custom fit for the truck so install will be pretty quick compared to the cheapy universal kits, and will work perfectly with the A16.
I'd also go ahead and add an in-bed 7-way with # C57008 that way they can easily plug in their trailers 7-way connector. Plugging it into the bumper 7-way rarely works well for long due to the tension on the cord.
