asked by: Greg C
Expert Reply:
The Reese Quick-Install Custom Base Rails and Outboard Installation Kit # RP56001-53 is confirmed to fit your 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 with the 6-1/2 foot bed. This is a custom install kit so it won't require drilling into your truck's frame.
Another option is the Curt Universal Fifth Wheel Base Rails with Installation Kit # C16100. This kit is universal so it is not specifically designed for your truck and therefore will require drilling.
Both kits include the brackets, base rails, and necessary hardware.
