Expert Reply:
We do carry an adapter that would allow you to tow a gooseneck trailer with your fifth wheel base rails on your 2002 Dodge Ram pickup. I recommend the Curt 25K Gooseneck Plate, part # 16055. This is a 25,000 lbs adapter plate that simply attaches to the base rails in your pickup bed.
This adapter has a 6250 lb tongue weight capacity.The center of the ball is 10-1/2 inches from one end of the plate and 14-1/2 inches from the other end which allows you to move the ball closer or further away from the cab of your truck. There is a curve in plate that provides a 2 inch rise. It also comes with a 2-5/16 inch heat-treated ball. This adapter is designed to fit Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Reese, Valley and Husky brand rails.
I have attached a link to a product review video and also an installation video that shows this adapter being used.
