Expert Reply:
For your 2012 Dodge Ram with a 5-1/2 foot bed I recommend the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 16,000 lbs # BWRVK3200 along with the B&W Semi-Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit for Dodge Ram # BWRVR3205-00. This is a fixed 5th wheel hitch and will work with your RamBox. In order to make this work you will also need a rotating pin box like a Reese Sidewinder.
I have attached a video review of the hitch as well as a helpful article for trucks with the RamBox for your reference.
