Question:

Already have the:Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 16,000 lbs Item # RP30047, for my 2021 SIlverado 1500, looking to upgrade my truck to a 2024 Silverado 2500. Love the hitch and am wanting to keep it. What rails and such do i need to order to be compatible? Im towing a 2022 Keystone Cougar half-ton 23 MLS. Thanks

To use your Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30047 with your 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500 you just need this rail kit from Curt:

- Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # C16429-204

Since this is a custom kit it matches up to the holes in your frame so no drilling into your truck frame will be needed. As of right now (May 2023) this is the only aftermarket rail kit that's been confirmed to fit your truck, but this also fits the 2023 Chevy trucks as well so essentially the kits that fit a 2023 will also fit the 2024.

The only other solution that's better is if you can get the OEM puck system on your 2024 pickup. Then you can use the Adapter Rails # C88KR instead. This is better than the custom rail kit mentioned above since you'll be able to have a completely clean and clear bed when you aren't towing.
