Helpful Expert Reply:
I spoke with the manufacturer, Curt, of the Curt X5 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter for B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Trailer Hitches - 20,000lbs Item # 16310 and they stated that this would not work in a 2020 Ram 2500 with a B&W gooseneck hitch.
Instead you can use the Demco 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter for B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitches # DM6140. It is compatible with Demco Hijacker Premier Series, B&W, Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reese, and Valley above-bed 5th-wheel trailer hitches.
Notes:
Do not use this adapter with the Demco Hijacker Autoslide hitch or any other automatic sliding fifth-wheel trailer hitch.
Do not use this adapter with a B & W Patriot slider fifth-wheel hitch.
Demco Hijacker 5th-wheel hitches manufactured before 2012 do not fit industry standard universal rails.
When using this adapter, you may have to remove the safety chain loops from your gooseneck hitch if they are mounted front/back rather than side to side.
