When trying to decide what 5th-wheel hitch to purchase that will clear your bed sides, I recommend using our website's fit guide. You simply would enter your vehicle information into the fitguide at the top of the page and then select the option at the top that says "2022 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 Fifth Wheel Hitch." Once you input that information, you will need to put in your bed size and whether you have the OEM prep package. Then, after you submit, it will take you to a list of confirmed fits for your particular model of vehicle.

If you have a 6-3/4 bed with OEM prep packaging, I recommend the following parts:

- Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # DM8550034
- Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Chevy/GMC OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package # DM6333
- Hopkins Endurance 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole and 4-Pole Connector # HM54FR

With the Demco Hijacker setup, you will be able to transport weight up to 18,000 pounds (gross towing) and 4,500 pounds (vertical load). This setup will be able to install into your 6-3/4 bed with OEM prep packaging.

If you have an 8-foot bed with OEM prep packaging on your 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500, we currently carry hitches that install below the bed rails. With that being said, I recommend the following setup:

- Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # RP26FR
- Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Wiring Harness 7-Pole # C56000

With the Reese M5, you will have 20,000 pounds of gross towing weight and 5,000 pounds of vertical weight capacity.
