To add a set of 5th wheel rails to the bed of your Ram 1500 you will want the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit item # C16444-204. This kit is custom fit and mounts in existing holes in your Ram's frame.

I have linked a review video below.

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 # C56000. 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.
