Expert Reply:
I have a replacement option for you, but the Reese Elite RE25 which is designed for the Ford OEM Prep Package is not compatible with the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter # DM6099.
Instead I recommend going with a new 5th wheel hitch like the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Ram Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3600 which will fit the OEM Prep Package of your 2018 Ram 3500, and offers a 25000lb towing capacity. The 1" thick dual jaws offer 360 degrees of king pin contact for a safe and smooth ride, and fully articulating head will allow for easier hitching to your trailer.
I included a video of the B&W Companion # BWRVK3600 for you to take a look at.
