  • 5th Wheel Towing with 2019 Silverado 3500 Short Bed with Factory Prep
  • If your goal is a lightweight 5th wheel towing setup in your 2019 Silverado 3500 short bed with factory prep then the combination of the Andersen Ultimate # AM3200 and the Demco Rail Adapter # DM6194 will work as long as your specific trailer's design gives it enough turning clearance when used with the 9-inches of offset from the Andersen. The distance from the Andersen's ball to the cab must be 4-inches more than half the trailer's width. Also, your trailer's pin box must be the fixed...

  • For your 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD Dually with the factory prep package, you are actually going to want to use the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package part # C16066, not the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16180 which is for above bed base rails that you don't have.

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2024 Chevy Silverado 3500 w/ Factory Puck System
  • Yes, it will. The Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # C97FR will mount directly to the pucks inside your 2024 Silverado's bed. As far as your 1621 pin box goes that's just the bolt pattern so I can't say for certain. If your pin box rotates then it will not work with the Q25. Other than that you will be good. The Curt Q25 item # C97FR has a 25,000 lbs maximum towing capacity and a vertical load limit of 6,250 lbs.

  • Width of BulletProof Hitches 2-Ball Mount # HD254 For Ball Mount Locking Pins
  • The BulletProof Hitches 2-Ball Mount # HD254 is 3-1/2" wide from the outside of the channel to outside of channel. I have included an image showing you where I measured this. We do have the InfiniteRule Locking Pins # 34061674-D which are stainless steel and can fit a span up to 3-7/8". These 3 locking pins are keyed alike so you will not have to keep track of multiple keys for the hitch as well as the receiver locking pins.

  • Does Titan BrakeRite Adapter for Integral Brake Controllers DX35FR Install On Trailer or Vehicle
  • The Titan BrakeRite SD Adapter for Ford/Chevy Integral Brake Controllers Item # T4845900 gets installed on the trailer normally.

  • The Dexter DX Series Electric Over Hydraulic Brake Actuator for Disc Brakes - 1,600 psi # K71-651 that you've got is compatible with the factory brake controller on your 2015 Chevy Silverado 3500, so I would start by checking the 7 way plug on your 3500 just to make sure that the brake controller output is working.
