Yes, the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package - Single Jaw - 27,000 lbs item # RP58FR will drop right into your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 with a 6-3/4' bed's factory puck system.

Unless your 5th wheel has a rotating pin box you're going to want to use a slider for additional clearance when backing up. You can't go wrong with the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20K item # BWRVK3775. The Companion is specially designed to attach to the receivers in your factory 5th-wheel towing prep package. The slider base on this hitch helps eliminate clearance concerns during slow-speed turns.

Don't forget your lube plate. The Lube Plate for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches - 10" Diameter item # RP83002 will prevent scratches on your fifth-wheel's skid plate and ease trailer hookup.

Hey Steve, so between the Curt #C16265 and the Pullrite #PUL36ZR I'd go wit the Curt but not the Q25. I'd go with the A25 #C24FR, which is basically the same thing as the Q25 but does not require the #C88KR adapter. Only the Curt is going to…
