Andersen Ultimate VS B&W Patriot Slider
I've been to the end of the internet and back, and I'm still torn on which hitch to get. I'll start off by saying my TV is a 2015 Ram 2500 CC SB with 35" inch tires. It's does not have a lift kit, but...

I think you will have a bigger issue due to your truck height. I'm not sure either choice you list is gonna work. You need to measure and plan your bed rail clearance.
His tires are only 1.5" taller than stock, only half of which raises the truck, and and the leveling kit is up front so really he's not much higher than a stock truck overall. Still might need to lift the trailer some as many do with the newer HD trucks.
Hitch wise I'd go Andersen. I like mine better than any fifth wheel hitch I've used. It has the advantages of a gooseneck setup (smooth, articulates well, idiot proof hitching) without the leverage disadvantage of a gooseneck adapter.
I see that you have the same truck. Do you have a leveling kit or bigger tires? How do you have the Andersen configured on your truck and trailer? My bed rail height is 59" and I believe the new 5th wheel already has the springs over the axles.
Thanks for everyone's input. I think bed rail clearance is my biggest concern now
