For the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w Slider for Ford Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3370 to be compatible with your 2012 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6-3/4' bed you'll need the Reese Elite Series Under-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for Ford Super Duty # RP30138-26.
I also recommend installing the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector # C56070 to provide an easy 7-way connection point in the bed of your F-250 for your 5th wheel to plug into.
I've included some videos below to help walk you through the installation for both of these products.
