I'd be happy to help with that!
If you don't already have a fifth wheel hitch in mind, I'd recommend the Reese, part # RP30928. The hitch features a two piece jaw that holds the king pin very tightly which greatly reduces chucking and jarring.
For frame and bed rails, I'd recommend the Reese # RP56007-53. These are the outboard brackets and rails you mentioned. No drilling is required to mount the frame brackets.
You'll also want to mount a 7-way trailer connector in the truck bed. I'd recommend the Hopkins # 41157. You can see an install video by clicking the provided link.
