Helpful Expert Reply:
Since you already have the Reese Universal Base Rails, part # RP58058 for your 2014 Ram 2500, I recommend using the Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit, part # RP50054.
The Curt installation kit you mentioned, part # C16427, has not been tested with the Reese system and installing them together would void the warranty on both. Also, there would be an unknown weight capacity since you are using components from 2 different companies.
