While we do have a way for you to tow your 5th wheel trailer with your truck that has a gooseneck trailer hitch, the Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter # KPG5-R30 only fits gooseneck trailers so it wouldn't work for you.
The best way to tow a 5th wheel trailer with the gooseneck ball in your truck is with the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # DM8550045.
This is a 5th wheel hitch that attaches directly to your truck's gooseneck ball, allowing you to easily and safely tow your fifth wheel trailer. The Recon is simple to install and is convenient because it comes in two lightweight pieces. This means you can easily install and remove the hitch for a clean, open truck bed when you come back from your trip.
The Recon also has a superb single-piece jaw that wraps totally around the king pin, and is reinforced via a 3/4" solid steel bar that locks into place once the jaw is closed. This reinforced jaw system ensures you will have a smooth and comfortable ride while using the hitch.
I have added a link to a video review for you to check out as well of the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # DM8550045.
