Can you tell me if the rp30047 is a correct fit for my truck? I have a 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500-2wd standard cab 8 ft box. I plan on pulling up to 8500 lbs with a pin weight of 1200lbs.

Expert Reply:
You are correct, the Reese 5th Wheel Hitch # RP30047 is a fit for your 2004 Chevy Silverado, you'll just need the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # RP50064-58 to complete your installation. This hitch features a dual-jaw design that offers more king-pin contact to reduce bouncing and chucking. The rail kit comes with custom brackets that will use the existing holes in your frame to reduce the time it takes to install.
