There is an option to use a 5th wheel hitch with a Curt gooseneck, but the Companion cannot be used as it mounts to a square gooseneck hole. Instead, what you can use is a 5th wheel hitch that mounts directly to the gooseneck ball, from Demco:

- Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # DM8550045

The Recon is not only simple to use but is also high quality with a superb single-piece jaw that wraps totally around the king pin and reinforced via a 3/4" solid steel bar that locks into place once the jaw is closed. This reinforced jaw system ensures you will have a smooth and comfortable ride while using the hitch.
