For a black ladder rack and tonneau cover combination for your 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 (with a 6-ft. bed), we carry some great options. As far as the tonneau cover, I recommend the RetraxONE XR Hard Tonneau Cover - Retractable # RTT-60462. The RetraxONE XR comes with weather stripping and foam seals on all sides to keep moisture, snow, and dust out of bed. In addition, the cover overlaps with the top of the tailgate to prevent water from leaking inside. These capabilities are critical for keeping your bed and cargo safe from the elements.

As for the ladder rack, I recommend the Yakima OverHaul HD Adjustable Truck Bed Ladder Rack - 78" # Y01151-59 along with the Tonneau Cover Adapter Kit for Yakima OverHaul HD and OutPost HD # Y01155. The adapter kit allows you to use the OverHaul HD with the RetraxONE XR. The OverHaul HD has a sturdy aluminum construction with a black powder coat that is durable and rustproof. As far as weight capacity, the OverHaul HD has a on-road weight capacity of 500 pounds and an off-road weight capacity of 300 pounds. Another great feature of the OverHaul HD is that you can add extra accessories like the load stops # Y01161 and eye-bolt connection points # Y01162. If you need straps to secure your cargo to the OverHaul HD, I recommend the Yakima HD Hook Straps with Cam Buckles - 10' x 1-1/16" # Y01165.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
