The Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails and Custom Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Hitches # DM8552032-71 is compatible with the 2019 body style. It is confirmed to fit both the 5-1/2 foot bed or the 6-1/2 foot bed of the Ram 1500 models.

You may also want to consider adding the Hopkins Endurance 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness with 7-Pole Plug # 41157 to your truck for convenient access and a clean look.

This combination will work very will with the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Above Bed - 13,000 lbs # DM8550040 which will automatically slide to give you the turning clearances you need without needing to get in and out of the cab to make adjustments. I've attached a video to assist as this is the nicest hitch option that will work with the short bed trucks without a Sidewinder style pin box. This is due to the extremely long travel of 22-1/2 inches that only this hitch offers compared to the 12 inch average of most other sliding hitches.
