Adapter for Demco 5th Wheel Hitch on 2023 Chevy Silverado 2500 6-3/4' Bed with OEM Prep Package

Question

Question:

I am purchasing the 2023 Chevy 2500 HD standard bed that has the gooseneck/fifth wheel package included. I currently have a 2019 Titan XD and purchased your Demco 21K fifth wheel hitch and the DM 6200 plate kit for the Titan. I have 2 questions, is there a puck/plate kit for the chevy and if there is will the Demco hitch attach to the plate for the chevy?

In order to use the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch on your 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 6-3/4' Bed with OEM Prep Package you'll just simply need the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Chevy/GMC OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package part # DM6333. The adapter just drops into place in the pucks and then it allows you to secure the fifth wheel hitch just as you would with any standard above bed rails.
