CURT 16076 E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Kit, Fits Select Ram 2500, 3500
Simple, reliable, and ready for the open road, the CURT E16™ 5th Wheel Hitch Kit is built to make towing straightforward and stress-free. Whether you’re hauling your camper for a weekend getaway or moving your fifth wheel across the state, the E16 delivers solid performance you can count on. Its dual-pivot head provides 10 degrees of lateral movement for smoother starts and stops, while the anti-rattle skid plate helps cut down on noise so every trip feels more relaxed. The automatic locking system ensures secure coupling with fewer steps, and the single-handle operation makes hitching and unhitching easy and intuitive. Designed for everyday practicality, the E16 features four height adjustment positions to fit your truck bed and a user-friendly lever arm that requires a simple lift motion — no awkward pull-out handle. For short-bed trucks, 12 inches of rearward travel give you the extra turning clearance needed to navigate campgrounds or tight spots with confidence. Finished with a tough carbide powder coat and tested for safety in accordance with SAE J2638, the CURT E16 5th Wheel Hitch Kit is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. Strong, quiet, and easy to use — it’s everything you need to tow with confidence and enjoy the road ahead. Includes E16 5th wheel hitch head(#16515), S20 5th wheel slider(#16564), and puck system 5th wheel adapter with rails (#16042).
