Husky Towing 33170K 16K Fifth Wheel Hitch Head, Crossmember & 26K HD Roller Kit

The Husky Towing 33170K is a 16,000 lb. gross towing weight fifth wheel hitch kit from the KW Series, designed for demanding towing applications. This kit includes the fifth wheel head and yoke assembly, 16KW crossmember, and a heavy-duty 26K HD roller — everything needed to mount a fifth wheel hitch head to a compatible rail and bracket system. Note: a separate fifth wheel hitch mount kit (bracket kit and rail kit) is required to complete installation.

The fully articulating head is the standout feature of the KW Series. The jaw moves with the head — not the tow vehicle — absorbing road movement and reducing torque twist on both truck and trailer. This translates to a noticeably smoother ride on uneven roads, off-camber surfaces, and driveway aprons, while reducing long-term stress on towing equipment.

• 16,000 lb. gross towing weight capacity with 4,000 lb. gross pin weight rating
• Includes fifth wheel head/yoke assembly, 16KW crossmember, and 26K HD roller
