Options For Curt Slider 5th Wheel Hitch With Locking Handle Below The Top Of Hitch Head

Question:

Is there a replacement locking handle available for the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch that does not stick up above the hitch? I would like to use a tonneau cover, but the handle sticks up above the bed rails.

Hey Joel,

There is no replacement handle for your Curt Q25 # C16566 that does not stick up above the hitch, they all use the same handle, and it's the only one that fits.

You'll need to not use a tonneau cover with the hitch installed, or switch to a hitch like the Curt # C35DR which uses a handle that doesn't stick up above the head.
