Can Underbed Bracket System Fit on 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 6.5 Bed for 5th Wheel Towing
Question:
Will the underbed rail system fit the new 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE 4WD 6.5 ft bedstandard box?
asked by: Jessica
Expert Reply:
The underbed rail system we have for your 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 with a 6-1/2' bed is the B&W Gooseneck Hitch # BWGNRK1019-5W which you would then pair with the Companion Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3400-5W.
If you're wanting more of a standard kit then you need the Curt Custom Installation Kit # C65KR but this is an above-bed system. At this time a kit like the Under-Bed Rail Kit # RP30868 doesn't exist for your truck. If you want an above-bed kit then the hitch I recommend is the Curt A16 # C16521 because of the interlocking jaws and fully articulating torsion head that gives you a nice, smooth ride quality.
Since your truck didn't come with the 5th wheel tow package I also recommend picking up the Curt In-Bed Wiring Kit # C56000 to make connecting and disconnecting your trailer wiring much easier.
