By far the way to go is the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider part # BWRVK3400-5W that you checked out. This offers a 20,000 lbs. capacity so it will handle your trailer weight with no issues. The Companion is the easiest to use slider out there with the best fit and finish available. It uses a dual jaw design and completely wraps around the king pin which eliminates most of the chucking often experienced during hauling a fifth wheel. As an added bonus this can be completely removed leaving your bed unobstructed and ready for use.

To attach the companion to your Ram 3500 us the Custom Underbed Installation Kit for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches part # BWGNRK1320-5W. This is one of the easiest to install goosenecks/fifth wheels on the market. Check out the video I linked for you on the installation. It will allow you to connect your Companion to it but also give you the flexibility to haul a gooseneck should that situation come up.
