Expert Reply:
The # C16521 Curt A16 5th wheel hitch you've looked at would work great in your 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500 short bed. You would also need the # C88KR rail kit. The rail kit would drop into the factory pucks, and the hitch would mount to the rail kit. The A16 features an interlocking jaw system that holds the king pin tightly all the way around its circumference, preventing any movement of the king pin for a smooth ride without all the banging and clanging you'd experience with other hitches.
If you'd like to install a 7-way trailer connector in the truck bed, you could do so using part # HM54FR.
