Expert Reply:
The base rails and installation kit I highly recommend for your 2013 Chevy Silverado 2500HD is the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # RP50066-58 because this kit will not require any type of drilling in your Silverado's frame to install. Not only is that a great thing for your truck, but it cuts the installation time down significantly.
I do want to note that these base rails will give your Silverado industry-standard base rails and will only work if your Mor/Ryde 5th wheel hitch is designed to fit industry-standard rails. What that means is your hitch would need to be able to fit rails with spacing that is 22” front to back and either 20-5/8” or 29” wide so you will want to verify this is how your hitch fits.
I have added a photo showing these base rails installed on a '13 Silverado as well as a link to a video of them being installed on a 2013 Chevy Silverado for you to take a look at.
