As long as your gross towing weight capacity is 16,000 lbs. you can use the Reese 16K Fifth Wheel, # RP30047, and Custom Install Kit with Above Bed Rails # RP50084-58, that you referenced with your 2014 Toyota Tundra with a short bed.
The sidewinder you referenced, # RP34FR, is compatible with Lippert pin box model numbers 0719, 1621 and 1621HD. Rota-Flex is an aftermarket part that replaces Lippert pin boxes. If you can provide the model number of the Rota-Flex pin box, I can cross reference it to find the original Lippert pin box model number.
