Helpful Expert Reply:

The best 2-1/2" adjustable ball mount for your 2020 Chevy 3500 is going to be the B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount- 2-1/2" Hitch item # BWTS20066BMP. This adjustable ball mount is made specifically for the GM MultiPro Tailgate. The angled design offers clearance for the inner-gate and step feature of your GM MultiPro tailgate.

This ball mount has a maximum drop of 7" and a maximum rise of 7-1/2". The 2-5/16" hitch ball has a 18,000 lbs capacity and the 2" hitch ball has a 7,500 lbs capacity. This hitch requires a minimum of eleven inches of clearance between the ground and the lowest part of the hitch.

To secure your ball mount from theft you will want the InfiniteRule Locking Pins for B & W Tow and Stow 10K and 14.5K Ball Mounts - Qty 4 item # 34061775-D.
