A20 20,000 lb sliding 5th wheel hitch

The CURT A20 5th wheel hitch provides a smoother, quieter ride for your home on wheels, combining the patented technology of our A-series with an easier mounting system and the power of a 20K 5th wheel hitch. Like our A16 hitch, this 20K 5th wheel hitch uses a patented cast yoke to allow for unimpeded head movement while providing exceptional trailer stability. The yoke is equipped with a set of poly-torsion inserts to reduce shock loads and excess noise, and the head features interlocking, high-strength jaws to give the trailer stability and the freedom to pivot and tilt as needed. This A20 5th wheel hitch head is equipped with the CURT S20 slider to mount in a short-bed truck using industry-standard 5th wheel rails and a bracket kit (base rails and brackets sold separately). CURT 5th wheel sliders are built with a solid design to eliminate rattling noise in the towing position and promote smooth travel from the forward position to the rear, without binding. With the slider installed, you can safely move the hitch point 12" rearward, allowing your short-bed truck to turn without obstruction. The slider lever is comfortable and easy to operate, featuring a lift-style lever easily accessible over the truck wall. The lever moves in a more user-friendly, ergonomic fashion compared to traditional slider levers. Best of all, the slider automatically latches in both directions, meaning you only have to get out of the truck once to complete the operation. Once installed, the A20 is quick and easy to use. It features a single-throw lockable handle that automatically resets to the ready-to-couple position after uncoupling, and it is equipped with a coupling indicator visible from the truck cab. To protect the A20 5th wheel hitch against rust and wear, it comes with a black carbide powder coat finish and a limited lifetime warranty. We also test the A20 for safety in accordance with SAE J2638 to ensure reliability on the road ahead.
