To use your Reese Trail Boss in your 2013 Chevy SIlverado 1500 you will need the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails item # RP50064-58. This kit will install in predrilled holes in your Silverado's frame.

I have linked an installation video below.

To make towing with a 5th wheel easier I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector - 10' Long item # C56000. This harness puts a 7-way connector in the bed of your truck and allows you to keep the one on your bumper. This makes hooking up to your 5th wheel trailer easier and more convenient.
