The Convert-A-Ball Gooseneck and Fifth Wheel Adapter # CAB-C5GX1216 allows your goose neck hitch to pull a 5th wheel trailer and provides 7-1/2-inches of offset for better clearance when making turns with short-bed pickups like your 2014 Dodge Ram 3500 short-bed pickup. The Andersen Gooseneck and Fifth Wheel Adapter # AM3139 offers slightly more offset - 8-inches - and is suitable for standard pin boxes (not cushioned or air-ride types). Installation of this adapter requires slide hammer # AM3103.

The Convert-A-Ball Gooseneck and Fifth Wheel Adapter # CAB-C5GX1216 is not compatible with the OEM tow package on the Ram since it will damage the plastic latch on the top of the ball.
