Hands down the best Autosliding 5th wheel hitch for your 2015 Ram 3500 DRW Mega Cab with the 6-1/2' bed and OEM prep package is the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Above Bed - 21,000 lbs # DM8550035 as it has 14" of front to back travel to allow you to make sharper turns without needing to get out of the truck and unlock the hitch each time you need to make a sharp turn. The single wrap around jaw provides 360 degrees of king pin contact, and the 3/4" thick locking bar will make sure your trailer stays securely connected.
To install the # DM8550035 in your OEM pucks you will need the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Ram OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package # DM6099.
I included videos of both of the products mentioned being installed in a similar 2017 Ram 3500 for you to take a look at.
