From what you are saying, it sounds like you are having clearance issues in your 2018 Ram 2500 when using the Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter # CAB-C5G. Rams do tend to sit higher than other trucks and clearance can sometime become an issue.
One potential solution is to get a tailgate designed for 5th wheel/gooseneck towing like the Stromberg Carlson 100 Series 5th Wheel Tailgate # VGD-10-100.
