For your 2016 Toyota Tundra with 5-1/2 foot bed, I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50084-58 which is a custom fit for your truck. Then I recommend the Reese Select Plus 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Single Jaw - 20,000 lbs # RP30928. This will be used with a Reese Sidewinder pin box because that is the only pin box fit with the 5-1/2 foot bed along with a fixed hitch similar to that listed above. This will create a 22 inch offset that will be secure at the hitch and allow rotation at the pin box using a turret. This pin box replacement will be a specific fit to the pin box of your trailer. I've attached a couple articles to assist.
I recommend the Bargman wiring harness # 50-97-410 to add a second working 7-way in the bed of your truck for easy connection access.
