You can use either pivot arm orientation with the B and W Companion part # BWRVK3305 that fits your 2021 Ram 3500 long bed with the OEM rail kit and it will work great, but if your trailer has a tapered nose I would go with the forward most position so that your towing setup would be just a little shorter and more weight would be carried forward, but if the trailer has a wide nose and clearance is tight I would go with the rear setup.
