Expert Reply:
The exact part that you need to use your Curt sliding 5th wheel hitch, like part # C55DR, in the short bed of your 2019 Ford F-250 depends on if you have the OEM prep package or not.
If you do have the OEM prep package then you simply need the Elite Series Underbed Rail Adapter # RP30156 which drops into your puck system.
If you don't have the OEM prep package you need a base rail kit like part # RP50074-58 which doesn't require drilling for the install. Both of these options give you the industry standard mounting points that are compatible with the majority of 5th wheel hitches out there.
I also recommend installing the Curt Wiring Harness # C57008 if you don't already have a 7-Way in the bed of your pickup. This makes connecting and disconnecting the wiring from your trailer much easier.
