Even though the B&W Patriot Head Assembly # BWRVC3200 on your 18K Patriot # BWRVK3255 is similar to the B&W Companion Head Assembly # BWRVC3006 they do install differently but I do have some options for your 2014 Ford pickup.
You can either use an adapter like the Reese Elite Series Underbed Rail Adapter # RP30156 so you can still use your Patriot or you can sell your Patriot and exchange it for a complete Companion part # BWRVK3370 for a short bed or # BWRVK3300 for a long bed, both of which are rated for 20K. We also have the Companion # BWRVK3305 for a long bed that is rated for 25K.
I have attached some review videos that you can reference as well.
