OE Puck System
Expert Take
A 20K A-Series puck-mount with a spherical head that articulates every direction for easy hookups and a stable tow. Mounts in factory pucks and runs well below the premium names, making it a strong value choice.
About This Product
The CURT A20 for GM trucks offers 20,000 pounds of towing with their quiet-towing A-series technology. Poly-torsion inserts absorb road shock before it reaches your truck. Same benefits as the A25, just with capacity matched to lighter trailers.
Drops into Silverado and Sierra factory pucks with quarter-turn anchors. Variable-position adjustment eliminates play for a tight, quiet fit. Most people install this themselves in a couple hours.
Articulating head, interlocking jaws, self-resetting handle, coupling indicator - all the A-series features at a lower capacity and price point. If your trailer is under 20,000 pounds, no reason to pay for more.
Cast steel construction with carbide powder coat. Lube plate included. One-pin head removal for storage when not towing.
For GM trucks with 8-foot beds and factory puck prep. Short beds need a slider. Twenty thousand pounds covers most fifth wheels on the road.

24K SuperGlide
The 24K SuperGlide is the gold standard for short-bed trucks, automatically sliding the hitch back when you turn so the trailer clears the cab without you touching a thing. It drops into factory pucks and tows incredibly smooth; the auto-slide mechanism is the trade you make on a slightly fussier install.

20K Companion Slider
A 20K sliding Companion aimed at short-bed owners who need extra turning clearance between cab and trailer. The slider adds a step at install and a manual move before sharp turns, but the head still tows cushioned and quiet.
