Question:
Hi, we have two older models of hitches: a Husky 16K fifth wheel hitch, and a TrailBoss 15K. The bolt holes for installation measure 20.5x22 on both hitches. Are these hitches compatible with a 2020 Chevy with factory rails? Thanks,

I have a solution for you on this.
The Husky and TrailBoss 5th wheel hitches are designed to fit into industry standard 5th wheel rails like the Curt # C16429-204, which is a confirmed fit on your 2020 Silverado 2500.
However, if you've got the OEM prep package on your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 you'll need to use the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Chevy/GMC OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package - 21K # DM6333 to mount one of those hitches in the truck. This adapter drops into the pucks and provides you with an above bed rail set that will allow you to mount 5th wheel hitches that attach to industry standard rails.
