The TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum trailer hitch receiver, part # TLC1211-30, has about 3/4 of an inch between the 2 receiver openings. The top receiver is a 2-1/2 inch (with a 2 inch adapter sleeve included) and the bottom is a 2 inch.

It's confirmed to fit your 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 as long as you have an 8 foot bed. If you have a short bed truck use part # TLC1212-30 instead.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
