CURT 16564 S20 Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch for Short Bed Trucks; 20;000 lbs (Head Required)
The CURT S20 slider makes it easy to tow a 5th wheel trailer with your short-bed truck. This slider features a quiet design, an auto-latching mechanism, an ergonomic handle and industry-standard mounting points. The S20 sliding 5th wheel hitch is built with a solid design to eliminate chucking in the towing position and promote smooth rolling from forward to rearward positions, with no binding. With the S20 installed, you can safely move the coupling point 12 inches toward the rear, allowing your short-bed truck to make turns without obstruction. The S20 slider is comfortable and easy to operate, featuring a lift-style lever that is easily accessible over the side of the truck wall. The lever moves in a more user-friendly, ergonomic motion compared to traditional, pull-out-style levers. Best of all, the S20 automatically latches into place in both directions, meaning you only have to get out of the truck once to complete the operation. Simply set the lever, pull the truck forward and you're ready to maneuver. The auto-latches will lock the slider into the rearward coupling position. The S20 sliding 5th wheel is rated for trailers up to 20,000 pounds, and it is fully tested to SAE J2638 specifications. It comes with standard mounting points to easily mount onto all industry-standard base rails.
