Yes and I have just the fifth wheel hitch for you. Take a look at the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30047, and Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit # RP30035. This hitch has a 16000 lb weight capacity and has garnered excellent review from our customers.
For a wiring kit use # 20023. This kit allows Remote Trailer Wiring in the pickup bed when towing 5th Wheel.
I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view. I have also included a link to a video review of this hitch.
