Expert Reply:
The Demco hitch adapter part # DM6194 is a confirmed fit for the factory rail kit of your 2017 Chevy Silverado 2500 short bed and will give you a set of industry standard rails for a fifth wheel hitch to install. Since you have a short bed and will need the turning clearance you'll want a slider hitch.
I really like the Demco Hijacker Autoslide part # DM8550034 which slides automatically as you make tight turns to give you the turning clearance needed without requiring you to get out and activate a slider.
