Although you have a short bed truck you will need a fixed hitch to tow the trailer with the Reese Revolution pin box because it has it's own pivot point that provides clearance so you will not need a slider. Having 2 points of movement could potentially cause damage to the setup.

I recommend the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Towing Prep Package- Single Jaw - 27,000 lbs part # RP30922 because of it's single hook jaw design that provides 360 degree contact with the king pin which will eliminate some of the chucking/rattling that you would experience with some of the other looser jaw connections of other brands. The Reese M5 is also what Reese recommends to be used with their rotating pin boxes so it will work well for your setup.

If you do not have 5th wheel wiring yet, I recommend Bargman 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness for Aluminum Truck Bed - 7 Way RV - 9' Long part # 50-97-410-010 which will plug in line with your existing 7-way on the truck and extend to the bed giving you an additional 7-way plug to plug the 5th wheel trailer into for convenient hookup. I have attached a video of this for your reference.
