Question:
will this hitch work on my truck?

It will not, but the good news is that we do offer a hitch that will work.
The 2014 Ram 2500 already has the rail structure mounted to the frame under the bed to accept a gooseneck hitch, so you'll need to use a gooseneck hitch specifically designed to work with that structure.
I'd recommend the B&W # BWGNRK1384 hitch which will bolt directly to the rails located under your truck bed.
The Curt # C60607 gooseneck hitch center section that you'd looked at isn't compatible with the existing rails under your truck bed.
If you'd wish to install a 7-way trailer connector in your truck bed so you don't need to run the trailer connector up over the tailgate to plug into the connector on the bumper, you can install one using part # 50-97-410.
I've linked to installation videos for the recommended hitch and trailer wiring harness/trailer connector mentioned above.
