The 2016 Ram 2500 Power Wagon is showing as only coming as a 6-1/2' or 8' bed length so if you really do have a 5.5' bed length please reply back and we can find the correct fit available.

The Reese Quick-Install Custom Outboard Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches Item # RP56009-53 you were looking at is a custom fit for a 2016 Ram 2500 with a 6.5' or 8' bed. These rails have custom fit brackets for the frame of your vehicle so that you won't have to drill into frame. These rails are ISR (Industry Standard Rails) so the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 16,000lbs Item # RP30047 you got with your 5th wheel trailer will be compatible with these rails.
