Expert Reply:
We have just what you are looking for. The correct Companion hitch you'll need for your short bed 2017 Ford F-250 is the slider Companion part # BWRVK3400 if you do not have the factory rail kit to give you the needed turn clearance.
For the rail kit you'd then need the B and W Turnoverball Gooseneck hitch part # BWGNRK1116 which is confirmed as a fit for your truck.
If you have the factory rail kit you'd instead want the part # BWRVK3370 which fits the rail kit directly in your truck bed.
