We can help you with a 5th wheel hitch base rail kit to allow installation of your B&W Patriot 18K slider hitch # BWRVK3270 in your 2017 Ram 2500 short bed.
The easiest install comes with a custom-fit kit made just for your truck. You can use B&W kit # BWRVK2602 to install base rails in your bed. An installation video is linked for you. And for a wiring harness you can use part # C56000.
