Troy, the universal rails # C16200 will work, but if you're interested in a custom kit that won't require any drilling then I'd recommend going with the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Ram Truck # C16427-204.
These rails will work with Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reese, and Valley hitches, and is assembled in the USA.
