I spoke to my contact at B&W about the B&W Companion part # BWRVK3300 for your 2018 Ford F-350 with the 8' bed and they informed me that they recommend positioning the arms so that the king pin rests 1" forward of the rear axle. This location will provide the best comfort while towing.
I have attached a photo that shows the proper position of the arms to achieve 1" forward of the rear axle for you.
