Welcome back Jon. I have an alternative but the DeeZee Red Label 5th Wheel Tool Box item # DZ8560WB will not fit in the bed of your 2021 Chevy Silverado 3500. At 24" it's too deep to fit between the front of your bed and the wheel wells.

As alternative, I recommend the UWS Truck Bed Chest item # UWS01048. It has 12 cu ft of storage space and measures 62" long x 20" deep at the top x 17-1/4" tall. This tool box has an indention that allows it to sit underneath the front lip of your Silverado's bed.

I linked a diagram below so you can see the dimensions of the item # UWS01048 chest.

What kind of gear or tools do you plan on storing in your new tool box and are you towing a 5th wheel trailer as well? Feel free to answer this and throw in any other questions you have, where it says Add Comment.
