For your 1997 Chevy C/K 2500 8 foot bed, there are many different rail kits and 5th wheel hitches that are compatible.
The Husky Custom Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # HT31402-686 you referenced is a confirmed fit. These rails can work with many different industry standard size hitches for your 5th wheel trailer. The Husky Silver Series 16K S 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Slide Bar Jaw - 16,000 lbs # HT31313-31314 will fit that criteria and will be a good hitch for your application as long as you won't be using a Reese Sidewinder, Reese Revolution, or 5th Airborne Sidewinder Pin Box.
