Recommended Rail Kit to Mount 5th Wheel Hitch on 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500
Updated 07/26/2021 | Published 07/24/2021
Question:
I have this hitch installed on my 2016 2500HD. I want to install rails on my 2021 Silverado 1500 so I can use it also. What install kit do I need to buy to do this. The patriot I have is a slider so it will work on the short bed 2021 truck. Just looking for the kit I need to buy to install. Thanks

The Reese Quick-Install Custom Outboard Installation Kit part # RP56015-53 is what I recommend using to install a fifth wheel hitch on a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. I recommend this hitch as it uses outboard rails which are much easier to install than the other options available. It will work with most fifth wheel hitches such as Reese, B&W, Curt, Husky, etc.
