We can get your 2021 Chevy Silverado 3500 with the factory puck system set up with a 5th wheel hitch, and by far the best option for a hitch is the B&W Companion, with the correct one depending on if your Chevy has a short bed or an 8 foot long bed:

- Short Bed: B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3775

- Long Bed: B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3710

The Companion stands out among its peers for a number of reasons, with the most important one being its mammoth jaw system. The jaws on the Companion are a full 1 inch thick and act like an adhesive to your king pin; this robust jaw system minimizes play between the king pin and hitch better than any other option to give you a quieter, more comfortable towing experience

Another important aspect of the Companion are its bushings; they are made of polyurethane which act as cushions that absorb noise and rattle so you can get to your destination in peace. The Companion is considered by most - myself included - to be the highest-quality fifth wheel hitch in the industry and is easily the best option for your 2021 Chevy Silverado 3500.
