Expert Reply:
The Firestone Ride Rite kit part # F2597 that you referenced is compatible with in-bed hitch rail kits like the Reese Elite Series Under-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # RP30138-26.
If your truck has a short bed you'd want the slider hitch to fit the rail kit, part # RP30144. If you have a long bed truck you'd want the stationary hitch part # RP30921 for an 20k hitch or part # RP30922 for a 27k hitch.
For a 7-way to install in the bed of your truck to make connecting your trailer lights easier you would want the part # 41157. Most 7-ways will be at the rear of the truck near the bumper which doesn't work will with fifth wheel hitches. This kit installs in line with the 7-way at the rear of your truck and gives you a second one to install in the bed.
