For your 2017 Ram 2500 with Factory Prep package, I recommend the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Single Jaw - 20,000 lbs part # RP30928 and the Reese 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Ram OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package part# RP30154. This will allow you to have a clean bed when not in use and easily install this hitch that is capable of pulling your fifth wheel trailer.

You may also be interested in the 5th Wheel wiring harness # C56000, to put a second 7 way in the bed of your truck for easy accessibility.

If you have a short bed truck, then I recommend using the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Above Bed - 18,000 lbs # DM8550034 along with the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Ram OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package - 25,000 lbs # DM6099. This will give you an automatic slider that will move without chucking as you navigate turns safely without needing to adjust a slider for clearance.

If you want a more basic slider option for a short bed, I recommend the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Square Tube Slider part # RP30051 along with the adapter rails # RP30154.
