For a custom 5th wheel rail kit that fits your 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 I recommend the Curt # C16411-204 which fits both a 6-1/2' bed and an 8' bed. This custom kit keeps you from having to drill into the frame of your Sierra and it provides you with industry standard base rails that your Q5 16525 and R5 roller are compatible with.
If your 2016 Sierra doesn't already have a 7-Way wiring connector in the bed then you may also be interested in the Curt # C56070 to make connecting and disconnecting your 5th wheel wiring much easier.
I have attached installation videos and instructions for both the base rail kit and 7-Way connector for you to reference.
