Expert Reply:
For your customers 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 with a 5-3/4' bed you'll need to install the B&W 5th Wheel Rails # BWRVK2504. These are custom designed for their truck minimizing how many holes you'll need to drill.
Keep in mind with a super short bed like that the customer will have to have a rotating pin box to be able to use a Pro Series 16k hitch, or they'll need a special hitch like the Demco Autoslide # DM8550040 which slides back 22-1/2" as you turn so you won't have cab to trailer contact issues.
