The most popular option we have for what you are looking for is the Convert-A-Ball part # CAB-C5G. This attaches to the trailer's pin box and provides a coupler for a 2-5/16 inch gooseneck ball. It has a 20k capacity and is a safe adapter as long as you stay under it's capacity. We are aware that some fifth wheel trailer manufacturers will state not to use adapters like this as it can strain the frame of the trailer, but we've yet to have an issue reported to us from our customers and we have sold a ton of these.
