If the brackets that you have purchased are not lining up on the frame of the Ram, they may not be the correct brackets or they are the correct brackets for the Ram's frame and do not fit the rails that you are re-using.

If you want a kit that is guaranteed to fit the 2019 Ram 1500 New Body Style, I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Brackets part # RP56018 for the 2019 Ram 1500. These Custom Brackets only fit with the 48" base rail part # RP30153. Please keep in mind these rails are compatible with Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reese, Pro-Series, or Valley fifth wheel hitches. Please let me know if your Hitch is not one of these brands and I can assist you further.

If you want to try to use the brackets you have now, please let me know the part number of the brackets and I can try to match them up with rails that work for the Ram.
