Good news! I can help you still use your Reese # RP30047 5th wheel in your new Dodge Ram 3500.
The adapter I recommend to adapt your 2016 Ram 3500 factory installed bed to be able to use your Reese # RP30047 is the Reese # RP30154.
The Demco # DM6099 you were looking at will also transform your truck's bed into the above the bed rails, it is just made by a different company.
I have linked it as well as installation videos of the adapters to this page for your convenience.
