Curt Fifth Wheel - Fixed Fifth Wheel - C16140 Review

Today we're going to take a look at the Curt A20 dual-jaw fifth wheel trailer hitch with a 20,000 pound weight capacity. Now, this fifth wheel hitch will mount in your truck bed so that you can tow your fifth wheel trailer. It uses the interlocking two-jaw system right here, which provides a nice 360-degree jaw-to-kingpin contact, and because of that it'll give you less rattle, more security than your slide bar models. Also, on the front of each jaw, over here and over here, you can notice there's two built-in grease zerk fittings, which will give you easy lubrication of the jaws. This hitch does use a fully articulating torsion head for controlled coupling and a nice stable, quiet ride. It will self-align for easy hookup, and helps suppress road shock to reduce any bothersome towing noise. The handle right here is a lockable handle. more

Curt Q20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with R20 Slider and Rails Review- Video

Curt Q20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with R20 Slider and Rails Review

Today we'll be having a look at the Curt Q20 Fifth Wheel Hitch, and Curt R20 Slider rails, and the bed rails to install it all with, part number C16636. This kit is designed for trucks with shorter than an 8 foot bed. The R20 Slider gives us the ability to have our fifth wheel hitch move further to the back so we can maneuver easier. To do that, just pull back on this handle, and then you can pull your truck forward, and it slides very easily to help you make into a maneuvering position. Once you're ready to actually drive you're trailer down the road, just apply your trailer brakes, put on your brake controller, put your truck in reverse, and back up until it comes back, and locks in position. The R20 Slider's most often used on trucks with 6 foot and 6 and a half foot beds. This roller helps eliminate clearance problems during slow speed turns. We are telling a fifth wheel trailer your hitch must be situated on a cab side of your truck's rear axle. However at slow speeds you can use a roller to slide a fifth wheel hitch and a trailer toward your truck tailgate, and pass the rear axle, creating enough space between the cab of your truck and the trailer to permit less restricted turning. This combination has a 20,000 lb max gross trailer rate rating and 5,000 lb max vertical load limit. The two-jaw locking system provides 360 degree jaw to king pin contact. more

B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Review

Today we're going to be taking a look at the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch, part number BWRVK3500-5W. This 5th wheel companion is going to be great for hooking up any 5th wheel trailers that you may have, but also if you have gooseneck trailers, it works great because this goes into gooseneck rails that you can use the gooseneck ball with. What's really nice about this 5th wheel companion is that you can completely remove it from the bed, so when you take it out, you've got a full bed access and there are no cross rails left behind. It features a dual jaw design. It's going to give you 360 degrees of coverage around your king pin. Unlike slide bar jaws, the rounded 2 piece jaw in this 5th wheel trailer hitch inhibits rattle and movement by securely wrapping around your trailer's king pin, resulting in easier hook up and a safer quieter ride. In order to operate those dual jaws, you simply remove the pin from the handle here and then this handle is a cam action, so as you pull the handle back, it's going to open up the jaws and then you can slide your king pin in. more
