I have a solution for you but the Demco Straight Safety Cables item # DM9523055 are only for flat towing. You can't use safety cables in place of safety chains for an in bed hitch. They're not rated for that, it will void any warranty, and it's against the law.
Instead you will want to use the DeeZee Custom-Fit Truck Bed Mat item # DZ86916. This mat is custom fit for your Ram 3500's 8' bed. You'll need to cut out the holes for the puck system. We have had multiple customers do this with great success. I have attach a picture below of what this will look like.
