Expert Reply:
To add a set of 5th wheel rails to your 2023 Ram 2500, I recommend the Curt Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit item # C16427-204. These custom fit brackets mount to existing holes in your truck's frame. They fit both the 6-1/2' and 8' bed.
To make towing with a 5th wheel easier I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness item # C56000. This harness puts a 7-way connector in the bed of your truck and allows you to keep the one on your bumper. This makes hooking up to your 5th wheel trailer easier and more convenient.
I have linked a couple of installation videos below so you can see how to get these parts set up.
