The best fifth wheel hitch for your 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500HD LTZ Short Bed is the sliding version of the B&W Companion because of its powerful jaws and cushioned bushings which combine to give you the quietest, more enjoyable towing experience available. You did not say if you had the factory 5th wheel prep package from GM or not, so here is what you need depending on if you have that:

- 2020 Silverado 2500HD WITH Factory Pucks: B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Sliding Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3775

- 2020 Silverado 2500HD WITHOUT Factory Pucks: B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with Slider # BWRVK3400-5W and Custom Underbed Installation Kit for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWGNRK1020-5W

The jaws on the Companion are the key reason why the Companion you are not going to have to deal with some of the things that can make towing a fifth wheel trailer a chore, such as the highly annoying rattle, as well as the back-and-forth chucking and jarring that can make your drive uncomfortable. The jaw system is so good on the Companion that it completely envelops the king pin, stopping that movement and noise. The bushings on the Companion are also integral to this; they are made of polyurethane and act as cushioning to absorb noise and movement.

I have added links to a couple video reviews for you to check out as well.
