Expert Reply:
Yes, it will. The B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails item # BWRVK2503 does fit your 2008 GMC Sierra 1500. It is custom fit for all three of that models bed lengths including your 6-1/2' bed. This set of rails is industry standard so they will also work with your Pro Series 16,000 lbs hitch.
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 # C56070. 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.
