Expert Reply:
Yes, the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for Chevy/GMC # C16418 will absolutely fit your 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500 with a short bed. This bracket kit is also the best option for your truck because it does not require any drilling into your frame rails to install.
This install kit does require the use of Curt Fifth Wheel Base Rails # C16204 (Carbide Black Finish) or # C16104 (Gloss Finish), both of which will mount a Curt 20K sliding fifth wheel hitch.
These parts also come as a kit, the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC - Carbide Finish # C16418-204 or Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC - Gloss Finish # C16418-104.
I have added links to some video reviews as well as an install of this 5th wheel kit in a 2005 Silverado for you to check out.
