Expert Reply:
No, you cannot use the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack # HLY84FR in the front hitch on your 2021 GMC Sierra 3500. Hollywood Racks states that the rack is "Not to be used on front hitches".
I recommend going with the Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack # S94FR. This rack can be used in your front hitch and can carry 2 bikes weighing up to 70 lbs. per bike. The E-spec has a very similar attachment style as the Sport Rider, but I actually prefer the wheel cradles of the E-spec over the Sport Rider. The only catch being, if your tires are wider than 3", you will need to add the Fat Tire Adapter Kit for Swagman # S64679. Otherwise, the E-spec is a great choice for your front hitch.
