For a custom-fit Reese 5th wheel base rail kit for your 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 with 6-foot bed you can use their kit # RP50140-58 that you referenced. This includes base rails, custom under-bed brackets and hardware and it will accept any industry-standard 5th wheel hitch, or a gooseneck adapter such as # 16055. All such 5th-wheel-to-Gooseneck adapters are linked.
For a Reese Gooseneck hitch kit you can use # 8339-4435 which is a no-drill install that is confirmed to fit your 6-foot bed 2500.
For a wiring harness you can use # HM42137.
