OE Puck System
Expert Take
A 16K A-Series fixed fifth wheel that mounts in factory pucks with the fully-articulating spherical head. Solid value for a lighter rig, with smoother manners than the entry E-Series at a small price bump.
About This Product
This fifth wheel hitch drops directly into factory OE pucks. No adapter needed. If your truck came with the fifth wheel prep package, you have pucks in your bed ready to accept this hitch.
Articulating head absorbs vibration. Interlocking jaws, self-resetting handle, coupling indicator. Full A-series features at the lowest weight rating.
If your trailer is under 16K and you want quieter towing, this delivers without breaking the budget.
SAE J2638 certified with limited lifetime warranty.
