The CURT Ram 5th Wheel Puck System Leg Spacers (2-Pack) Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch Mount Kit (Part #BKDK16993) is designed for 6'4" bed trucks. Check the fitment chart for your specific Ram 2500 configuration.
The CURT Ram 5th Wheel Puck System Leg Spacers (2-Pack) Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch Mount Kit (Part #BKDK16993) fits 2013-2026 Ram 2500 models. The 2026 model year is the last year covered by this part number. For newer models, check for an updated version.
The CURT Ram 5th Wheel Puck System Leg Spacers (2-Pack) Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch Mount Kit (Part #BKDK16993) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
The CURT 16993 shim kit is designed for 5th wheel hitches where the center-to-center distance between the pucks measures between 992mm and 1001mm (39-1/16" to 39-7/16"). You must measure your puck spacing before purchasing. If your puck spacing is less than 992mm, the shim kit is not needed. If it exceeds 1001mm, this kit is not compatible.
Measure the center-to-center distance between the pucks in your truck bed. If the measurement is 992–996mm (39-1/16" to 39-1/4"), you need 1 shim. If the measurement is 997–1001mm (39-1/4" to 39-7/16"), you need 2 shims. The kit includes 2 universal shims, so you have enough for either configuration.
You will need: a torque wrench, a 22mm socket, a 22mm wrench, and safety glasses. These tools are required to properly install the shims and tighten the bolts to the correct specification.
The kit includes 2 universal shims, 4 hex bolts M14 × 2 × 50mm, and 4 hex bolts M14 × 2 × 85mm. The bolts are used to secure the shims between the 5th wheel head and legs.
All M14 bolts must be torqued to 100 ft-lbs. Use a torque wrench to ensure proper tightening and prevent damage to the product or vehicle.
The shims are installed between the 5th wheel head and the legs. The first shim is installed on the passenger side. If you need a second shim (for puck spacing of 997–1001mm), it is also installed between the head and legs. Use the bolts provided in the kit to secure the shims in place.
After installing the shims and tightening all bolts to 100 ft-lbs, continue following the instructions provided with your original 5th wheel assembly. The shim kit installation is a preliminary step before final 5th wheel assembly.
Using the specified torque of 100 ft-lbs for all M14 bolts helps prevent damage to the product or vehicle. Under-tightening can cause loose connections and movement; over-tightening can strip threads or crack components. Always use a torque wrench to achieve the correct specification.
CURT rates the installation difficulty as Easy. The kit requires basic tools (torque wrench, 22mm socket and wrench, safety glasses) and involves measuring puck spacing, positioning shims, and tightening bolts to specification. However, the manual does not provide a detailed step-by-step installation procedure or estimated installation time.
The kit fits 5th wheels with puck spacing of 992–1001mm (39-1/16" to 39-7/16"). Measure your puck center-to-center distance first. If spacing is less than 992mm, the kit is not needed.
You need a torque wrench, 22mm socket, 22mm wrench, and safety glasses.
Torque all M14 bolts to 100 ft-lbs using a torque wrench.
The kit includes 2 universal shims, 4 hex bolts M14 × 2 × 50mm, and 4 hex bolts M14 × 2 × 85mm.
Measure puck center-to-center distance. Use 1 shim for 992–996mm spacing, or 2 shims for 997–1001mm spacing.
