Expert Reply:
The rails are all made to the same specs for the most part as far as how the hitches fit into them but as far as how they attach to the brackets under the truck bed they are different enough that they are not interchangeable.
The two most common kits for your 2008 Chevy Silverado 2500HD are the Reese part # RP50064-58 and the Curt # C16418-204 which you can check out and let me know if either brackets match what you have.
