The only TorkLift trailer hitch that fits your 2005 GMC Sierra 2500 short bed is # TLC1204. This is the SuperHitch Original Class V hitch with dual 2 inch receivers. It is rated for 1,700 pounds tongue weight and 17,000 pounds gross trailer weight. When used with weight distribution it is rated for 2,000/20,000 pounds. I have linked a video of this bad boy for you.

The current Torklift tie down part #TLD3101 that you have installed on your 1997 Dodge Ram 3500 only fits if you have the factory hitch. If you go with the SuperHitch part #TLD1100 you would need to change your rear tie down to the part #TLR3503.

Yes, the Torklift Class V hitch part #TLC1205 would be a great option for your 2002 Chevy Silverado 2500HD long bed. If you instead had a short bed truck you would want the part #TLC1204. The 17k capacity is more than what your truck is rated for so…
