From the sounds of your question, I believe you mean you are looking for crossbars that are compatible with your rails on the RetraxPRO MX Hard Tonneau Cover # RT80235 (with RamBox) or # RT80232 (without RamBox) on your 2020 Ram 2500. Since the RetraxPRO MX does not come with t-slots, you need to first add the Replacement Side Rails for RetraxONE XR or RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover with Trax Rails # RTT-82381 before installing slotted accessories (if you do not have the t-slots already).
For a great crossbar system compatible with those t-slots, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series and Mountain Top EVO-M and Mountain Top EVO-M Tonneau Covers - Black - 65" Long # RRVA165B-RRRLT600. This system comes with locks in the leg covers to allow the legs to secure the crossbars to the slots. Apart from the theft-deterrence, the Vortex crossbars provide you with 220 pounds of maximum weight capacity.
