I do have a potential solution for you, however I reached out to my contact at Gen-Y and found that the bolt pattern for the RBW 7027 wing brackets won't line up to what is on the Torsion 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Adapter Pin Box # 325-GH-8045.

We do not have a replacement pin box available that will work to replace your existing RBW model, so your best option is going to be with an adapter like the Convert-A-Ball # CAB-C5G. This will bolt right onto the king pin itself (instead of replacing it) to provide you with a coupler to attach to the gooseneck ball in your truck. It features really nice interior polyurethane cushions that work to absorb road shock for a smooth ride during travel. It has an adjustable height of 12 to 16 inches.

It has a 20,000 pound towing capacity. I have attached an installation video so you can see exactly how it works.
