Expert Reply:
The best way to proceed will depend on if there is already a fifth wheel or gooseneck hitch installed on your truck.
If you already have a gooseneck hitch installed, we offer several different adapters that will allow you to tow a fifth wheel using a gooseneck ball. The Rapid Hitch Ranch Hitch adapter, part # AM3100 is one of our best sellers, but keep in mind that using the adapters can void some fifth wheel warranties because of the extra stress they can place on the frame of the fifth wheel.
The best practice is to install a fifth wheel hitch and use the rails to mount a gooseneck adapter plate like the # 16055 you mentioned.
