The correct Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack for a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with 6-1/2' bed is part # TH43002XT-781. It sounds like you might be trying to transfer the Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack from another truck so if that is the case you will need the Base Rails for Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Racks part # TH21781 which comes with rails and the correct hardware for the oddly shaped stake pocket openings. This hardware however can be obtained separately with the Replacement Hardware Kit for Thule TracRac SR Ladder Rack Base Rails part # 752-186-3001 which work on both short and long bed models.
