Expert Reply:
First, for a 2001 GMC Sierra 2500 the correct front mount hitch is going to be # 65028 from Draw-Tite or # 31108 from Curt. The hitch you referenced # 31049 is for Ford vehicles.
I have included links to the installation instructions for each of the hitches that will fit your truck so you can see what each installation entails. There is no drilling required on the Draw-Tite or Curt hitches unless you will need to enlarge some holes. No new holes will be drilled.
