Expert Reply:
If you want to use the B&W Companion Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter part # BWRVK3500 then your only option is to replace the Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch and install the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch part # BWGNRK1059 for 1500 models, part # BWGNRK1067 for 2500 models, or part # BWGNRK1062 for 3500 models.
The other option you have is to keep the Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch and use the Curt X5 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter part # C16210 with the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # BWRVK3255 which is similar to the B&W Companion in regards to quality and performance.
