Yes the B and W Companion Slider Hitch part # BWRVK3775 that fits the OEM rail kit of your 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500 does have pins for the head of the hitch that easily come off so that you can remove the head first and then the base. This allows the weight of the hitch to be split up a bit to make the process a bit easier.
