Helpful Expert Reply:
The best hitch for your 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 w/ the OEM prep kit is going to be the B&W Companion item # BWRVK3710. This is a non-sliding 5th wheel hitch that will drop right into the puck system of your GMC truck. It has a 20,000 lbs capacity which will have no problem pulling your 2015 312BHX Forest River Wildcat. The B&W has 1" thick dual jaws that provide a 360-degree jaw-to-king-pin contact. This means less rattle and more security than slide-bar jaws.
Since you have a Reese Sidewinder you will also need the 5th Airborne Custom Wedge for B&W Fifth Wheels item # SWW-06.
