Helpful Expert Reply:
The Demco Hijacker Autoslide part # DM8550034 is a really great, solid hitch that makes towing a fifth wheel trailer with a short bed truck much easier since you don't have to get out and operate the slider mechanism.
To install it in your 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500 short bed would only require you to install the Demco rail kit part # DM8551010 and you'd be set.
