For your 2017 Ram 1500 6-1/2 foot bed we have the Reese fifth wheel bracket kit part # RP50142 which is a custom fit and comes with the brackets needed to install the rails you have if they happen to be Reese. Since we don't recommend mixing rail and bracket manufacturers we can't recommend this bracket for a different brand of rail.
You'll need new hardware to attach the rails to the brackets as well with part # 58164.
