Expert Reply:

Installing a fifth wheel trailer in the bed of your 2021 GMC Sierra 2500 short bed with the OEM rail kit does not require you to also install a fifth wheel tailgate like the Stromberg that you mentioned. Your tailgate can be left installed on your truck when towing. You'd just need to fold it down when backing up to the trailer and the fold it back up.

This is true for if you used the auto-sliding fifth wheel hitch # DM8550034 with the GM rail kit adapter # DM6333 or if you installed the B and W fifth wheel hitch # BWRVK3775.
