Which Curt Fifth Wheel Hitch Fits Short and Long Bed Chevy Silverado with Factory Rail Kit
Question:
On the specs. it will not allow me to change to a 6.5inch bed at the add to cart window. I have a 2017 Chevy 2500 HD Duramax crew cab 6.5inch bed with factory installed fifth wheel set up. Will this hitch fit in that bed and the puck holes are @22inch front to back .

Expert Reply:
The GM factory fifth wheel rail kits are slightly different between the short and long bed trucks so the hitches we offer for the GM factory rail kits are bed length specific. So the Curt A16 part # C16520-16025 will only fit the long bed trucks.
Since you have a short bed truck you'd have to go with a slider Curt hitch like # C16668.
