About This Product

The CURT E16 for GM trucks is their budget puck-mount option. Sixteen thousand pounds of capacity at a lower price than the A-series. You give up the poly-torsion quiet-towing technology but still get a solid hitch that mounts to factory pucks.

Quarter-turn installation into Silverado and Sierra pucks. Simpler head design with roller mechanism instead of the articulating torsion head. Still pivots and moves, just through a different system.

If quiet towing is not a priority and you want to save money, the E-series delivers the basics without premium features. It is still CURT engineering with their warranty support - just positioned as the value option.

Sixteen thousand pounds handles most mid-size fifth wheels comfortably. Good choice when budget matters and your trailer weight is well under the limit.

For GM trucks with 8-foot beds and factory puck prep. Not for short beds unless you verify clearance. SAE J2638 certified.
