Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation that Fits 2008 Chevrolet Duramax 2500 with Reese Signature Rails
Question:
I have a 2008 Chevy Duramax Long bed crew cab. It has a puck system underbed 5th wheel hitch system. I need to know what hitch to buy. I measured 13inch top to bottom and 30inch side to side. I would figure 20Kplus since GVW of trailer is 17500.

Helpful Expert Reply:
What you have installed in the bed of your 2008 Chevy Silverado is the Reese Signature Series rail kit based on your picture and the dimensions you listed.
For a hitch to fit this rail kit directly with a higher capacity we have the part # RP30922 which has a 27K lb trailer capacity. Or if you could get by with an 20k capacity we have the # RP30921.
