Expert Reply:
The B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2500 is a confirmed fit for your 2001 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD. It will work very well with the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30047 you asked about. These custom bracket drastically reduce the installation time and utilize holes already present in your frame.
You may also want to consider the wiring harness # 50-97-410 to add a second 7-way to the bed of your truck for a clean look and easy connection access.
