Question:
What 5th wheel hitches do you have that will fit my 2019 Chevrolet 2500HD with a 6-7inch box? I see the frame looks like it is tapped for bolts for mounting the hitch plates. I would need the mounting hardware as well. My old truck had rails that mounted on the top of the bed. I am looking for one that mounts from underneath so I dont have the rails.

There are options to install an underbed mounting kit for a 5th wheel on your 2019 Silverado 2500, but it does limit your ability to use your old 5th wheel hitch since underbed hitches are all going to mount to different sized "pucks".
With that said, the best underbed mounting kit is going to be the B&W Turnoverball Underbed mounting kit # BWGNRK1016-5W, which is custom fit for the 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500. The Turnoverball provides you with a gooseneck hitch, so on top of giving you a clear truck bed when not towing, it's going to give you the versatility to tow a variety of trailer types.
As with all underbed kits, the Turnoverball uses a very specific hitch type- but it's widely considered one of the best on the market; the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs # BWRVK3400-5W drops in to the gooseneck hitch in the Turnoverball system and will provide you with a durable 5th wheel hitch that's made in the USA. This sliding hitch provides up to 12" of additional clearance from your truck bed with its' slider system and the 2 piece design makes it easy to get the hitch in and out of the truck.
I've linked some review and installation videos on these parts for you to have a look at.
