The recommended custom fifth wheel install kit for your 2006 Chevy Silverado is the Curt Installation Kit part # C16418-204. The measurement from the rear of the box to the rear of the front rail would be 47.5 inches.
I attached the installation instructions for this kit and a diagram I took from the instructions that shows the rail placement.
