Reese has a fifth wheel rail kit that fits your 2000 Ford F-250 short bed with the part # RP50082-58 that you referenced which is also compatible with the B and W Patriot Slider part # BWRVK3270 you are interested in.

Now since you'll have a Reese fifth wheel rail kit installed the Air Lift kit you'd want is the part # AL88298 which was made specifically to fit with Reese rail kits. The part number you mentioned would not work with it.

Now for a brake controller the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 part # 90885 is the best option as it's the best performing, easiest to use, and also very reliable. To install it you'd only need the part # 3035-P and you'd be set.

For an in-bed 7-way adapter you could use the part # 41157 as well.
