Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Rails and Universal Installation Kit, # C16116 will fit a 2018 GMC Sierra 2500 but with a 6-1/2 foot bed you will have cab clearance issues unless your 5th wheel is a narrow nose design or has a rotating turret type pin box. Otherwise for a short bed 2018 GMC Sierra I recommend a slide type hitch such as the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Roller, # 16516 and using the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC, # C16418-204 instead of a universal fit rail kit. The custom kit requires less drilling than universal kits.
If you do already have the needed wiring, the correct part number for your 2018 GMC 25005 is 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Plug, # 50-97-410.
