I have a 2011 Ram 3500 mega cab. It already is equipped with a BandW gooseneck turnover ball. Which BandW fifth wheel hitch can be utilized with my existing turnover ball?

Hello Cody, I can definitely help with this. The B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitch is what will work with your existing B&W Turnoverball gooseneck hitch. If your truck has a 6-1/2' bed, I do suggest using a slider hitch to gain clearance on turns. For that I recommend the B&W # BWRVK3400-5W which is rated for 20,000 lbs.
For long bed trucks the slider is not needed, and you can use the fixed hitch # BWRVK3500-5W which is also 20K rated. Both of these hitches are designed to work with the Turnoverball system so they will be easy to install. B&W makes a very solid hitch that is known to be durable and user friendly. Made here in the USA too.
