Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Hitches

 

The CURT PowerRide 5th Wheel Hitches are designed for customers who need professional-grade 5th wheel towing strength with a hitch that is easier to operate, move, and manage in the truck bed. Built around a 30,000 lb. gross trailer weight rating, PowerRide gives pickup owners a heavy-duty towing foundation for large campers, RV trailers, toy haulers, and other compatible 5th wheel trailers. It is a strong choice for customers who want maximum confidence from a 5th wheel hitch without giving up everyday usability.

PowerRide focuses on combining high-capacity towing with smarter handling features. The cast steel body provides dependable strength, while the multi-directional cast yoke head helps the hitch move with the trailer connection instead of only pivoting front to back. This design helps promote smoother towing and a quieter connection during highway travel, campground driving, jobsite access, and other real-world towing situations where the truck and trailer are constantly moving together.

The interlocking jaw system fully wraps the kingpin to help create a secure connection and reduce unwanted chucking. That tighter connection helps customers feel more confident when towing heavy 5th wheel trailers over changing road surfaces. Integrated wear plates support smooth operation and help reduce the need for messy grease, giving the hitch a cleaner and more user-friendly towing experience inside the truck bed.

Ease of use is one of the biggest advantages of the PowerRide design. The self-resetting handle returns to the ready-to-couple position after uncoupling, helping reduce extra steps during hookup. The handle is positioned for easier operation from the side of the truck, while the three-position coupling indicator gives customers a clear visual reference for coupling status before towing.

PowerRide is also built to be easier to remove and relocate when the truck bed needs to be used for other cargo. The one-pin head removal system allows the hitch to separate into smaller pieces, making handling more manageable than moving the complete hitch as one assembly. Strategic grip points give customers better places to lift and hold the hitch components when removing, storing, or repositioning the system.

The hitch is designed for installation on compatible 5th wheel rail systems with no welding or fabrication required. A 4 inch height adjustment range helps customers better match the hitch position to the truck and trailer setup, supporting bed rail clearance and a more level towing position when properly installed. Whether customers are upgrading for large campers, RV travel, toy haulers, heavy 5th wheel trailer towing, long-distance trips, or professional-grade hauling needs, the CURT PowerRide 5th Wheel Hitches deliver 30K towing strength with smoother operation and easier handling.
