Question:

I believe I have a Reese 5th-wheel hitch and rails. I am wanting to get the frame mounts that use the existing holes in my frame and bed of my 2009 Chevy Silverado 2500HD with 8’ bed. Can you provide me with the part number and price? Thank you in advance. Craig

Hi Craig,

To install your Reese 5th wheel hitch into your 2009 Chevy Silverado 2500 long bed, I suggest using the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for Chevy/GMC part # C16418 and the Curt Universal Fifth Wheel Base Rails part # C16204. The Curt custom brackets and universal rails are compatible with Reese hitches, giving you attachment points for your 5th wheel with half the drilling and install time required

What fifth wheel are you planning on towing with your Chevy 2500?.
