5th Wheel Hitch Parts Required for 2015 Ram 2500 with 5th Wheel Prep to Install Pull-Rite Slider

Question:

I am getting a 2015 Ram 2500 with 5th wheel prep package. I am buying a Pull-Rite 2700 auto slider with capture plate and that I need either the Pull-Rite oem adapter #4439 which is expensive or a Reese #30154 less expensive and both pop out of the bed easily for a flat floor. Is this correct? Also, I have one shop telling me that I need a 4th part, an underbid rail mount for my 2015 ram 2500 with 5th wheel prep package an extra $735.00 and this is the first that I have heard of that. Is this not necessary? Thank you.

The Reese 5th wheel hitch adapter # RP30154 that you referenced does fit into the 2015 Ram 2500's factory 5th wheel prep package. No other items are needed to install any industry-standard 5th wheel hitch into this Reese adapter on your truck. The factory prep package provides the under-bed mounting brackets so these do NOT need to be added to the set-up.
