Ram box on short bed - ill-advised for towing a 5th wheel?

I'm looking at Ram 3500 Mega Cabs with short beds for 5th wheel towing. Does having Ram boxes on the sides of the truck bed present any kind of problem when it comes to towing a 5th wheel?

The bed opening is narrower with the Rambox. I have read of issues with the pin box hitting the sides of the bed while turning. You will need a short style pin box to avoid this but that will cause problems with the short bed.
