Fifth Wheel Rails and Hitch Recommendation for a 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500 Short Bed
Question:
is this the correct part to fit on a 2015 Chevy 2500 HD with 6.6 ft bed
asked by: Kieron B
Expert Reply:
The fifth wheel install bracket kit part # RP56001 that you referenced has been confirmed to fit your 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500HD with a short bed. You should know that this is just the bracket kit. If you are in need of the rails as well you would instead want the part # RP56001-53.
Since you have a short bed truck you will need a slider hitch like the part # C95DR so that you can make tight turns without cab interference.
