As long as your trailer is below the towing capacities of this Convert-A-Ball Multi-Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Coupler Adapter # CAB-C5G, which are 4,000 lbs tongue weight and 20,000 lbs overall trailer weight, you should have no problem using this product to tow your 36 ft fifth wheel camper with your 2011 Chevy Silverado 2500HD that has a B and W turnover gooseneck hitch installed in it.

To make sure that the 12 to 16 inches of the # CAB-C5G would be the correct sizes for your setup you will need to measure from the top of the ball on your gooseneck setup to the top of the fifth-wheel head, where the pin box rests, to get the correct measurement for selecting the proper gooseneck adapter.

I attached a page that has all of the different size convert-a-ball adapters for you to check out also.
