Yes, the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Round Tube Slider - Dual Jaw - 16,000lbs # RP30075 will just require the Reese 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Ram OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package - 25,000lbs # RP30154 to work with the prep package in your 2017 Ram 2500.
If you need wiring for your new 5th wheel trailer, you'll want to use the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Wiring Harness 7-Pole item # C56000, which connects to the US Car Connector port on your Ram 2500 and puts a 7 way connector in your truck bed that you can plug your 5th wheel into without having to worry about getting an extension long enough to run back to the bumper.
