A16 5th wheel hitch, Ram 2500, 3500
Technical documents
The CURT A16 5th wheel hitch excels in ease of use and provides a stable, quiet 5th wheel towing experience. It achieves this through two key features: a single-throw handle and a patented head. The single-throw handle only needs to be pulled once for coupling and uncoupling. It is designed to automatically reset to the ready-to-couple position after uncoupling, allowing for fewer steps when hitching your trailer. The patented A16 head is equipped with a cast yoke with poly-torsion inserts as well as interlocking jaws to ensure the stability of your truck and trailer. These components allow the A16 to suppress shock and vibration and reduce any extra noise coming from your trailer. In addition to its single-throw handle and cast yoke head, this 16K 5th wheel hitch is equipped with a three-position coupling indicator. The indicator is visible from your pickup truck cab and eliminates the need to get in and out of the cab to check the connection when coupling or uncoupling. The A16 also features an extra-wide head for easier coupling, simple single-pin removal for easier hitch removal, and a 16,000 lb GTW capacity to tow a variety of 5th wheel trailers. Like other CURT A-series hitches, the A16 is covered in a durable carbide powder coat finish. This particular A16 hitch comes with a CURT OEM puck system and 5th wheel legs, designed to mount on a long-bed Ram pickup with the truck bed puck system. Using a set of quarter-turn anchors, the legs drop quickly and easily into the pucks, instantly mounting the A16 hitch and equipping the truck for 5th wheel towing. The anchors feature an adjustable design to lock the hitch down tightly and eliminate chucking noise, and the legs are coated in a durable carbide black powder coat to be highly resistant to scratches, rust, and UV damage. These legs are exclusively designed to fit the Ram puck system and cannot be installed without it.
