For a 2023 GMC Sierra 2500 I recommend the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2505.These custom-fit rails are designed to fit with the factory holes in your Sierra's frame to minimize drilling and cut down on installation time. They're compatible with ISR rated hitches so you won't be limited to only the B&W brand if you already have a different branded hitch.
These rails are unfortunately not compatible with the CarbonPro bed, so if you have this feature you'll want to switch to the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC Truck # C16429-204. These also feature custom-fit brackets and are compatible with ISR fifth wheel hitches.
If you don't already have an in-bed 7-way then I recommend also picking up the Bargman 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Plug # 50-97-410. This will give you a much easier to reach connection point for your 5th wheel's 7-way connector.
