I have exactly what you need. Since you have the 5th wheel hitch prep package from Ford you will want the Reese Fifth Wheel Dual Jaw Trailer Hitch # RP30047.
This hitch is designed to fit the bed rail in your 2013 Ford F-350 Super Duty's 8 foot bed, has a 16,000 lb capacity and can pretty easily be removed and installed. You will also need Reese Elite Series Underbed Rail Adapter for Standard 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP30156.
I attached a review video for Reese hitch # RP30047 for you to check out.
Reese has discontinued the Signature Series line.
