Those do not but I checked with Blue Ox and found a set that will. For your 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 you will need the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit item # BLU54VR.
The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit item # BLU24TR you were looking at fits the 2022 and 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500s.
I have linked both sets of instructions below so you can see the differences in these base plates and how to get yours set up.
Here are some other parts you will need to flat tow your 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500:
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267
Supplemental Braking System - Blue Ox Patriot Radio Frequency item # BLU37TR
