Can A Curt Q25 Hitch Head Be Used To Replace The Hitch Head Of A Curt Q24 5th Wheel Hitch
Question:
I currently have the Curt Q24 5th wheel hitch and need a replacement head unit but see one for sale. Will the Q25 replacement head unit work with hitch?

Expert Reply:
The Curt Q24 # C16245 and Q25 # C16265 use different legs but they both have the same bolt patterns so you could technically replace the head of your Q24 # C16545 with the head of the Q25 # C16565. Since the legs are still only rated for 24,000lbs you wouldn't receive any benefit from the higher capacity hitch head though.
