The Reese fifth wheel rail kit part # RP50142-58 is a confirmed fit for your 2016 Ram 1500 short bed with air suspension so it would be your best options.
The best slider hitch we offer would be the # DM8550034. What's so great about this hitch is that it automatically slides back in the truck bed as you make tight turns so you would never have to get out and activate the slider.
