The Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # RP50054-58 are a fit for both your 2019 Ram 2500 and any 5th wheel hitch that installs on industry standard base rails (ISR).

Since both the Pro Series 15K hitches, like what comes in parts PS30128 (discontinued) and PS30128 (discontinued), and the Reese 16K 5th Wheel Hitch # RP30051 mount to ISR systems then they will fit with the Reese kit # RP50054-58 that you referenced.

Attached is an installation video of this base rail kit being installed on a 2016 Ram 2500 that you can use for a reference.
