I have a way to add a ladder rack to your 5' bed 2023 Ford Ranger but there are no sliding ladder racks available for your truck that are compatible with a Paragon bed cover. I confirmed this information with Thule.

I recommend the Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack item # A36ZR. This ladder rack is compatible with your Paragon bed cover because it mounts into the stake pockets on your bed rails. The Adarac ladder rack has a 500 lbs capacity and uses 66" long x 1-1/2" wide crossbars.

I have linked a review video below.
