Expert Reply:
Both the Curt A20 # C16541 and Curt Q20 will attach to the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch # C88KR to utilize the puck system in your 2021 GMC Sierra 3500. The only real difference between the two is that the A series jaws overlap whereas the Q series butt up against each other more than overlap. The bearing and shaft that the head pivots on is different between the two as well. Basically the A-series is the updated and improved version of the Q-series so for the best version I'd recommend the # C16541.
