On your 2016 Ford F-250 short box, the PullRite hitch model 2700 should be almost directly over the rear axle. If you are needing rails for this system, I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50026-58 which is a confirmed fit for your specific truck and is compatible with your 5th wheel hitch.

I've attached a review and installation of this kit on a similar vehicle. You may also want to consider the Bargman 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Plug # 50-97-410 to give you another 7-way trailer connection with easier accessibility by placement inside your truck bed.
