It is possible that your industry standard rail system in your 2020 Ram 2500 may fit in your 2014 Ram 2500 Diesel but without knowing which brand or part number you have I can not say for certain. You will want to use all new hardware if you are able to transfer the kit over. Below are the 5th wheel industry standard rail kits that fit both of your trucks:
Reese Quick-Install Custom Outboard Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches item # RP56009-53
Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches item # RP50054-58
Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Ram Truck - Carbide Finish # C16427-204
B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2602
Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails and Custom Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Hitches item # DM8552025-71
To make towing with a 5th wheel easier I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector - 10' Long item # C56070 to your 2014 Ram 2500 diesel. 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.
