For your new 2021 Chevy Silverado 2500 with OEM Prep Package I recommend the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20,000lbs # BWRVK3710. B&W makes all of their hitches in America and are known for their quality. This specially designed hitch will attach to the receivers in the bed of your Silverado for a quick and simple installation.
The 1" thick dual jaws provide 360-degree jaw-to-king-pin contact for less rattle and more security than slide-bar jaws. The fully articulating head pivots front-to-back and side-to-side to ease hookup and helps to limit chucking. It has 3 height settings and 2" of front-to-back adjustment for improved cab clearance.
I've attached a video below where Conner will offer you some additional information as well as walking you through installing this hitch in the bed of your truck.
You'll also need the Sidewinder Wedge Kit for B&W, Demco, and Husky Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP74FR to prevent the king pin of your sidewinder pin box from pivoting in the jaws of your hitch.
If you do not already have an in-bed 7-way connection you can install the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector - 7' Long # C56070 to make connecting your 5th wheel to your vehicle easy peasy.
