I recommend the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch # DM69GV as the best and easiest to use option for your 2024 Ram 2500 short bed. This hitch will drop into the 4 outer mounting points in your beds factory mounting puck system. The hitch automatically slides back up to 14" as you turn ensuring you will not hit your cab when having to make tight turns.
