Yes, you can use the 20K Reese 5th wheel trailer hitch with installation kit and rails # RP50140-58. As long as the hitch fits in industry standard above the bed rails there will be no problem. The same rail kit is used for various capacity trailer hitches. be sure to consult the owners manual for the capacity of your 2012 Ram 3500.
