Yes, the Curt Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Ford F250 and F350 - Gloss Finish item # C16443-104 will fit your 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty. For a better kit that does not require drilling into your frame I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches item # RP50074-58. The only holes you will have to drill are through the bed to attach the rails to the brackets that install in pre-existing holes along your frame. The Curt kit will require drilling. I have linked an installation video along with the instructions.

To make towing with a 5th wheel easier I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector for Aluminum Beds - 10' Long item # C57010 to your 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty. This harness puts a 7-way connector in the bed of your truck and allows you to keep the one on your bumper. This makes hooking up to your 5th wheel trailer easier and more convenient.
