A-SERIES WEDGE KIT

The CURT A-Series Wedge Kit is a fifth wheel hitch accessory engineered to level trailers and eliminate unwanted pitch when towing heavy loads. Designed for use with CURT Sidewinder hitches, this wedge kit addresses one of the most common towing challenges: maintaining proper ride height and load distribution under dynamic driving conditions. Whether you're hauling a gooseneck trailer, livestock carrier, or heavy equipment, maintaining correct hitch geometry prevents premature suspension wear, improves brake response, and ensures safer handling on highways and rough terrain.

This kit features a 1-inch-thick steel wedge with a durable black powder coat finish, protecting against corrosion and road salt exposure while maintaining structural integrity under constant flexing loads. The one-inch thickness is the standard compensator depth for mid-duty fifth wheel applications, allowing fine-tuned leveling adjustments between the hitch kingpin and trailer deck. All necessary hardware is included for direct installation onto compatible CURT Sidewinder hitch platforms, eliminating the need for aftermarket fasteners or modifications. The 5.2-pound weight means minimal tongue weight addition while providing the rigidity required to support dynamic trailer movement without deflection or binding.

Fleet operators, commercial haulers, and serious off-road enthusiasts benefit most from this precision-engineered wedge system when towing varies between empty and fully loaded configurations. Installation takes approximately 15–20 minutes with basic hand tools, and the kit integrates seamlessly with existing CURT Sidewinder hardware without frame modifications. Proper wedge installation is critical: incorrect hitch angle increases swaying, reduces payload capacity, and accelerates suspension component failure. This A-Series wedge restores geometry compliance and is a permanent solution for maintaining consistent towing dynamics across diverse load scenarios.
