Husky does not currently have a 5th wheel installation kit for the 2014 Ram 3500. But you can use Curt installation kit # C16430-204. The Husky slider hitch will fit in the Curt rails. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you.

There is no drilling required to install the below the bed frame brackets but with any installation kit you will have to drill through the bed to attach the rails to the brackets.
