Yes, you will need to use a slider fifth wheel hitch on a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 with 6-3/4' bed in order to make full 90 degree turns. For this, I recommend the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # DM8550035 with Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter part # DM6333. This option has an auto-slide feature so there will be no need to get in and out of the cab to make tight turns since it slides back for you when needed. It will be pretty much the same as using a fixed fifth wheel hitch.
