I recommend the B and W Turnoverball Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1313 that you referenced for your 2004 Dodge Ram Pickup 3500 Long Bed. B and W makes high quality products. This trailer hitch is rated for a gross towing weight of 30,000 pounds with a vertical load limit of 7,500 pounds. The hitch ball has a diameter of 2-5/16 inches and can be flipped upside down when not in use to allow you access to your complete truck bed. I have attached an installation video of this hitch on a 2004 Dodge Ram.

To tow your fifth wheel trailer with your gooseneck trailer hitch, I recommend the B and W Companion Gooseneck-To-Fifth-Wheel Adapter # BWRVK3500. This hitch will allow you to haul your fifth wheel trailer smoothly and efficiently and features dual jaws to secure the king pin and work to minimize jarring and rattling. The Companion has a gross towing weight of 20,000 pounds and a vertical load limit of 5,000 pounds. This style adapter will perform the best over any other gooseneck adapter. I have attached a review video of this adapter for you.
