Expert Reply:
Ram would be only place to get the underbed rail kit for your 2019 Ram 2500 but I do have a solution that will allow you to use the head of your current Companion hitch. You'd need to install the B and W Gooseneck hitch/5th wheel rail kit part # BWGNRK1320 and then use the Companion hitch base slider part # BWRVB3405 with the head of the hitch you have now.
Or you could sell your current hitch and go with the part # BWRVK3400 for an all new slider hitch.
