I have an option that will allow for you to use a 5th wheel hitch on a gooseneck hitch with your 2015 Dodge Ram 3500. For this you will want to install a 5th wheel hitch compatible with your factory gooseneck and mounting puck system.
For a gooseneck to 5th wheel hitch with factory tow package that retains the factory mounting puck system, I recommend the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider for Ram Towing Prep Package part # BWRVK3670.
As long as the tool boxes does not protrude past the front of the factory style pucks, then you will be able to install both the 5th wheel hitch and toolbox.
I have included a review video for your viewing.
