Question:
I just got a 2024 Ram 2500 and I did not get the prep package. I tow a 5th wheel trailer and need to add a set of rails to my truck bed. Thank you

Congrats on the new truck! To add a set of 5th wheel rails to your 2024 Ram 2500, I recommend the Curt Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit for Ram Truck item # C16427-204. These rails install with custom fit brackets that install in pre-drilled holes in your Ram's frame. This kit fits both the 6-1/2' and 8' bed lengths.
I have linked an installation video below to help you get these rails set up.
To make towing with a 5th wheel easier, I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness item # C56070. 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.
