Expert Reply:
Yes, the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1308 will fit on your 2011 Ram 2500 Power Wagon with the short bed, but you will need to do a little bit of modification for it to fit.
On the driver's side plate there is a little ear that you'll need to cut off and you may or may not have to drill a new hole in the side of that plate for it to match up to your frame. On the passenger's side you may or may not have to drill a new hole into the frame of your pickup for it to match up.
Other than that you will be able to use this gooseneck hitch no problem. I confirmed all of this with my contact at B&W.
I also recommend checking out the Curt 7-Way # C56070 if you don't already have on in the bed of your truck.
