For your 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD with 6.5' bed I recommend going with the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM8550034. It is rated for 18,000lbs and provides 14" of travel.
The Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails and Custom Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Hitches # DM8552011-71 will include your above bed rails and custom mounting brackets that attach to existing frame holes. If you have a drop in bed liner it will have to trimmed or removed to fit the rails.
I recommend also adding Demco 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness # DM8555002. This will give you a 2nd 7-Way connection in your truck bed so that your 7-Way cord isn't being stretched over the tailgate or damaged.
Our pricing is always subject to change and current prices will be found on the product pages.
