Expert Reply:
The correct 5th wheel hitch for your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 with prep package will depend on the length of your truck bed.
If you have the 6-3/4' bed I recommend the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3775. The slider provides the clearance needed for turning with your 6-3/4' bed and this sliding hitch works with your prep package without the need for an adapter.
If you have the 8' bed I recommend the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3710 which will also drop right into the prep package without an adapter.
Both of these 5th wheel hitch options are sourced and made in the USA, have 1" thick dual jaws that provide 360-degree jaw-to-king-pin contact and a fully articulating head that eases hookup and helps to limit chucking.
