To install the B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch # BWGNRK1104 you were looking at in your 2013 Ford F-150 with the 5-1/2' Bed you will need to measure from the end of the bed where the tail gate ends forward 45-1/8" as you mentioned. This will be the location you will need to drill the 4" diameter hole for the gooseneck hitch.
All of the F-150's no matter the bed size will use the same measurement.
I included a video review of the # BWGNRK1104 for you to take a look at.
