We do offer a number of different gooseneck hitches that can install into existing 5th wheel hitch base rails. Since 5th wheel rails are all built to an industry standard, the brand of base rail really does not matter.
The link provided will show you 6 options in a gooseneck hitch that will install in your 5th wheel base rails. We have one with an offset ball that allows you to install the hitch in an orientation that gives you 3-inches of additional clearance between the hitch ball and trailer. It is the Curt Gooseplate Adapter item # 16055.
Both include the pins for attachment and both are shown in the linked videos. If you want to lock the hitch in place on the base rails you can add part # TR63254 from Tow Ready.
