Expert Reply:
You can use the Pro Series, part # PS30121, to tow a fifth wheel trailer with your 2011 GMC Sierra. This hitch fits into the industry standard Reese rails. If your Sierra is a 1500, then I recommend using the Reese Custom Install Kit, # RP56007-53. The brackets with this kit do not require drilling any additional holes to install and significantly reduce the installation time compared to the universal brackets.
If your Sierra is a 2500 or a 3500, then you want to use the Reese Custom Install Kit, # RP50066-58. I have attached the installation instructions for both custom rails for you to check out.
