Our lowest price hitch that is a confirmed fit for your 1988 Chevy truck is the Curt part # 13028 which would work well for you. It has a 6,000 lb total trailer weight capacity though so as long as that 5,700 lb figure includes the trailer you would be good.
Otherwise you would have to go with a higher rated hitch like the Draw Tite part # 41901 which is also a confirmed fit.
