The CURT GM Puck System 5th Wheel Adaptor with Standard Rails combines the functionality of the CURT 5th Wheel Puck System with the strength and convenience of GM’s truck-bed puck system. This adapter provides a set of industry-standard 5th wheel rails to securely mount a CURT 5th wheel hitch or roller to compatible GM puck systems (within a specific year range).

The key feature of the GM 5th wheel adapter is its quarter-turn anchors. With the hitch initially bolted onto the adapter, the adapter can easily be dropped into place whenever needed and secured with the quarter-turn anchors. The anchors can also be adjusted to help eliminate chucking noises between the adapter and under-bed platform while towing. When you are finished towing, the anchors simply turn to remove the entire assembly within seconds.

The puck system is compatible with all CURT 5th wheel legs and rollers, and has a weight capacity of 25,000 lb. The 5th wheel adapter is tested for safety in accordance with SAE J2638 and is coated in a highly durable carbide black powder coat finish to protect against scratches and rust. It is also backed by a limited lifetime warranty to make sure it can keep up wherever you and your GM truck wander.

Features:

  • Fits `20 Chevy/GMC Silverado/Sierra 2500/3500 HD
  • Fits `11-`20 Ford F-250/F-350 Super Duty
  • Adapts CURT 5th wheel to fit OEM puck system
  • Capacity limited to lowest-rated component (25,000 lb. for OEM puck system)
  • Industry-standard rails accept most 5th wheel legs & rollers
  • Quarter-turn anchoring system for quick installation/removal
  • Adjustable anchors eliminate chucking between legs & under-bed platform
  • Carbide black powder-coated finish for protection

The new Go Rhino SRM400 Series Roof Racks allow a whole new level of customization. Each roof rack features removable front and rear fairings that make the rack more versatile and customizable.

The combo light beam produces 2,921 lumens of light intensity and a 6,000-Kelvin, cool-white color temperature perfect for intense darkness. The LEDs also have a 50,000-hour lifespan and both an IP68 and IP69K protection rating backed by a lifetime product warranty.

Social Media Made Easy with ReadyPosts

ReadyPosts is one of our newest tools for resellers in 2020. It is a free social media tool that helps aftermarket resellers engage customers and drive in-store sales. ReadyPosts is simple and easy because it is a library loaded with pre-written content and curated images searchable by hashtag, description, part number, category, and manufacturer.

There are a variety of posts from lifestyle images, product shots, videos, MAP-priced calls-to-action, and other content—like our COVID-19 geared images. We created the special COVID-19 series of posts because we understand that automotive aftermarket businesses have had to speak and work differently with their customers during this time. The COVID-19 ReadyPosts highlight that stores are still open, customers can book private appointments, and encourage people to get out in their garage to start new projects or finish up old ones.

We created ReadyPosts to make social media and digital marketing easier for resellers. Rather than focusing on driving likes and shares, ReadyPosts content targets the ‘discovery phase’ of the shopping experience. The goal is to inform consumers of what’s available to them and encourage them to contact their local reseller to learn more and potentially buy.

 Resellers can access ReadyPosts via the Insight account system at accounts.theaamgroup.com. And to see the special COVID-19 content, users should got to “ReadyPosts” in Insight and filter results by checking the COVID-19 box on the left-hand side of the page.
