Your 2005 GMC Sierra 3500, if you can handle a towing rating of 16K then I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V XD - 2" # C15312. If you need the larger capacity then you will need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V Commercial Duty - 2-1/2" # C15703 but you will use a different ball mount or likely weight distribution system shank for this hitch.
For your wiring, I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package - 7-Way and 4-Pole Flat Connectors # C55774.
