We sure do Dustin! To add an offset gooseneck ball to the puck system on your 2024 Silverado 2500, you'll want the Gen-Y Hitch Gooseneck Trailer Hitch item # GY55XR. This 2-5/16" gooseneck ball has a 5" offset. It's going to attach directly to your gooseneck hole and the two pucks closest to your cab. It has a 25,000 lbs towing capacity and a 6,000 lbs maximum tongue weight.

The Gen-Y Hitch Gooseneck Trailer Hitch item # GY55XR is really going to help with turning clearance on a short bed truck. The 5" offset is going to push the gooseneck connection closer to your tailgate to give you some extra room when turning and backing your trailer in.

Please note that this is the only option for a offset gooseneck ball that fits the GM factory puck system.

The unit worked great for us, no issues. We could make tight turns and not impact the truck cab, and you have an open truck bed.

It does work great for us. We had our RV dealer put a Reese Goosebox 20K on our Grand Design Reflection when we bought it. With that goose box on our camper and this offset ball, mathematically I can make a 90 degree turn with 1-2" clearance from the cab. In practice, I've yet to actually need to make a 90 degree turn. It does give me the peace of mind knowing that I can make a 90 if I have to but I don't have to deal with a sliding fifth wheel hitch.

I’m very happy with the 5” offset, I can manage the placing and removing with no problems. The Gen Y hitch works very well with the offset . When towing I feel no issues, the pull is very smooth.
