For your 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13393. This is a custom-fit Class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a concealed cross tube so only the receiver will be visible at the rear of your truck.

The # C13393 has a maximum gross trailer weight of 6,000 lbs and tongue weight of 600 lbs. This hitch features a bolt-on installation and a limited lifetime warranty. It has a gloss black powder coat finish and is compatible with weight distribution as well.

If you need a ball mount as well, I recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. This kit has two ball mounts, one with a 3/4" rise or 2" drop and the other with a 2-3/4" rise or 4" drop. It also comes with a 1-7/8" and 2" ball, as well as a ball mount bag to store everything in.

I have attached a review and installation video for your reference.
