While the Reese M5 hitch you asked about is not a fit for your 2021 Chevy Silverado 2500 short bed with the factory puck system, there is a similar fixed 5th wheel that does fit which I recommend, which is made by Curt:
- Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # C84FR
The A20 # C84FR has a 20,000 lb capacity, which is the same as the M5 you asked about, and the A20 will fit directly into the puck system of your '21 Chevy Silverado 2500 short bed, without any type of adapter needed. There are a couple of different reasons I highly recommend the A20, starting with its jaw system.
The jaw system on the A20 # C84FR is actually a dual-jaw system, and what they do is interlock when the jaws are closed, which ensures total security and grip around your king pin; I have added a photo for you which shows the jaws interlocked when they are closed. This system is what is going to provide you with a more comfortable, smoother towing experience than other hitches because it helps ensure a quieter ride than a hitch with lesser jaws.
Another feature that makes the A20 # C84FR stand out is its color- coded indicator system that lets you know if the jaws on the hitch are ready to couple, uncouple or tow. This, along with its built-in zerk fittings so you can lube the hitch, make it one of the easiest to use. There really isn't a better way to go for a fixed 20k hitch for your 2021 Chevy Silverado 2500 than the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # C84FR.
