Today we're going to take a look at the Curt Universal 5th Wheel Base Rails with the installation kit in a carbide black finish. These base rails will provide a solid mounting point for your 5th wheel hitch. The universal L-shape brackets here will fit nearly any application. They are semi-custom brackets that can be used to ease installation on certain vehicles. All the parts are protected by a highly durable carbide powder coat finish. They are inaudible 00:00:24 in a rust resistant liquid bonderite coating. Now, this part is compatible with most 5th wheel hitches, rollers and goose neck adapters by Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Reese, Valley, and Husky.
Complete kit includes everything shown here, the two base rails themselves, the 4 L-shaped universal brackets, all the mounting hardware, and a nice set of detailed instructions on how to install everything. That should do it for the review on the Curt Universal 5th Wheel Base Rails with the installation kit in a carbide black finish.

Install your fifth wheel trailer hitch with this universal-fit kit. Includes base rails, hardware and universal, L-shaped brackets.Poorly packed only revived 1 tail and 1 bracket and the instructions the othe tail 3 brackets and install kit missing.
Wait he’d a week to get it planed to pu a trailer in 3 days now thanks to poor package I will not be able to pick up the trailer and will lose the $500 deposit I put down.
Brooke M - 10/19/2021Product and instructions were great. The packaging wasn’t excellent but everything made it. The finish on the rails was good and so was the hardware. Added this hitch to an 02 Silverado 1500 HD. Hope I didn’t void the warranty by welding on the frame
I ordered this kit to install on my truck. It was shipped really fast got it within a couple of days. However All I got was the rails. Called told them I did not get any hardware at all. The sent the hardware out within 2 weeks seems to take longer to send out parts they forgot a lot longer. Again I never received all of the mounting brackets. Called again they said it would be another week or so to get the brackets. I’m waiting for my refund. I’m not happy with customer service at etrailer will not order from them again.
This is how I found my package when I got home on my front deck. I am not even sure if I have everything not very happy with it.
Wouldn’t know if it works due to not receiving them. The bolts and brackets were not in the base rail kit. So can’t use it or the pins I ordered due to not being able to mount my hitch. Contact has disappeared. Will not be shopping with eTrailer again.
Jenny N - 12/01/2021Great service and delivery. Thank you. We needed the new 5th wheel hitch and other products quickly since our other truck stolen and had to install hitch on new truck so we could get back to NC from Texas. Will use your company in the future.
Very disappointing with this package because I got it in the mail and it was all damaged and I didn't receive the hardware that comes with the package. I emailed them and they said they are going to send me the hardware but I haven't gotten any email confirming that I am getting them or a tracking number.
Brooke M - 05/05/2022I HAD IT PROFESSIONALLY INSTALLED AND WAS MISSING A BRACKET. TOOK THREE WEEKS TO GET AN APPOINTMENT for installation TO LEARN THAT I WAS MISSING this BRACKET THAT CAME 6 DAYS LATER....LUCKILY I stole a bracket off another truck, rusty and difficult to remove however could complete the installation by the professional asap...sad, no apologies from this COMPANY and no immediate shipping...took their dang sweet time! "Rush order" and shipping maybe? BUT they did say they were going to "pass this on to the packaging people to address my concerns."

I like the rails, however when I opened the box to install it the mounting brackets were missing.
The first delivery of my order, arrived open and missing parts due to shipping. I call in the same day, they took the time to listen and followed up with reshipping my order. I was very please with the service. The curt universal fifth wheel base rails was easy to installed. And at an affordable cost. I am very pleased with the product and service. I strongly encourage you to try this company. I will definitely be using this company again.
Great people to work with. My package arrived damaged and taped up (damaged in shipping. Not shippers fault). When I opened the box, one of the longer brackets was missing. etrailer had contacted me for feedback on my order. I replied that the box had been damaged in shipping and the long bracket was missing. I also sent pictures of the damaged box with my reply. The company quickly replied to make sure nothing else was missing and sent the missing bracket. I'm sure the missing bracket is floating around in a UPS truck somewhere. I would do business with this company again without hesitation.
I was very happy with my purchase. come to find out that my dodge ram had previously had the exact same hitch installed so I just bolted everything in place, couldn't have been easier. I would give it 5 stars.
every thing was in good shape good quality material box came busted short brackets was missing i call and they sent me them real satified
When we got the product it was missing a bracket so now we cant go on our camping trip until we get a bracket . Kinda pissed!!
Sierra K - 10/14/2021This product worked well for what I needed and the price I wanted, it is universal so afew extra parts came with it. But I am very satisfied. I installed afew extra bolts just for added Security, it got the job done.
Parts for my fifth wheel hitch appear to be all i had hoped for. The parts are heavy duty and the bolt kit has high grade bolts included.
I would like to leave a review but half my order was missing very poor packaging heavy items single cardboard box not happy about having to wait for missing items to be shipped
Awesome product, heavy duty, fit perfect, only complaint is the fish wire broke on my 3 bolt of 8 !!
Looks to be a good heavy duty set of rails.
The Universal fit means you have to do a lot of drilling so make sure you have some good sharp bits handy. Don’t tighten any of the bracket bolts until you have them all in. I had to swap a couple around because of the proximity to the bed supports.
I received the package and was not pleased on how it was handled in transit. There has to be a better way to ship these kind of items. Upon arrival I was met with a destroyed package I brought it inside and looked over every single piece and to my luck everything was there. This is the second time I’ve tried to order this item finally received it and had to worry if it was damaged in transit. Again there has to be a better way to package and ship these heavy items.
This is a great company. Had the kits I needed. Shipment got here part of it was lost in shipment. The company replaced the whole kit in record time. Very satisfied with them an would recommend them to all for the needs. Thanks e-trailer.
Missing product was reported to shipping department and adjustments were made promptly and items were sent to me in a timely manner.
Very happy with the service and I defenitely will recommend to friends and family
Received the heavy box delivered in a speedy manner. Put in truck as illustrated. Smooth installation of rails. Put the hitch mount on the rails but no pins to lock it to the rails. Buying the rail and hardware kit, I expected the kit to have included the 4 pins. Somewhat disappointed. I wanted to install and get on the road.
Victoria B - 11/15/2019Package was in very bad condition parts missing. Still have not received replacement parts Don't know how well it's gonna work
Jenny N - 10/14/2021I did not recieve any of the nuts or bo lts.
