When it comes to adding a 48 inch hitch extender to your 2021 GMC Sierra 3500 with a 3 inch hitch The TorkLift Cannon Hitch Extension - 3 inch Ford Super Duty Factory Hitch - 48 inch Long # TLE1648 will be the correct one for you.

This heavy-duty design lets you maintain a high towing capacity and allows you to use a standard weight distribution system if needed and comes out as a 2-1/2 inch receiver. The patented, lateral-support safety chains provide extra security and help to distribute weight back from the extension's receiver opening to your frame-mounted hitch.

The maximum gross trailer weight is 3,000 pounds and it has a maximum tongue weight up to 300 pounds. I also recommend getting The Draw-Tite Hitch Receiver Lock - Extra Long - Flush Design # BD580412 which will offer superior strength and durability.
