E16 5th wheel sliding hitch, 16K, Silverado, Sierra

The CURT E16 5th wheel hitch is an economical choice that offers a variety of features for a smooth and safe 5th wheel towing experience. The E16 has a 16,000 lb. gross trailer weight capacity and can handle a vertical load of up to 4,000 lbs. It is equipped with a dual-pivoting head, 10 degrees of lateral movement, and an anti-rattle skid plate to provide a smoother, quieter ride. The E16 also offers easy, single-handle operation as well as a durable carbide black powder coat finish for long-lasting protection against the elements. With four height settings, the E16 is quick and easy to install and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. This 16K 5th wheel hitch comes with the CURT R16 slider and the CURT OEM puck system 5th wheel slider adapter. It is designed to be mounted on select Chevrolet or GMC short-bed trucks with the truck bed puck system (year-specific). Using a set of quarter-turn anchors, the adapter drops quickly and easily into the pucks, instantly mounting the E16 hitch and slider and equipping the truck for 5th wheel towing. Once installed, the R16 slider provides extra clearance during tight turns with your trailer. CURT 5th wheel sliders are true rolling units, meaning they actually roll on wheels supporting the weight of the trailer rather than simply sliding on hollow rods as seen on competing models. With a thick handle, the roller smoothly rolls the 5th wheel head forward and backward, locking securely into either position as desired. CURT sliders also offer up to 12 inches of travel, unlike the more common 10 inches, giving you plenty of range of motion and ample space to maneuver your RV or other 5th wheel trailer through any turn. This E16 hitch with puck system slider is designed only to fit certain Chevrolet or GMC trucks equipped with a year-specific puck system and cannot be installed without it.
