Can Gen-Y 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Replace Lippert Rhino on Brinkley 5th Wheel

Question:

I have a Lippert Rhino 5th wheel Item # 2022071039 S/N S009890405 on my Brinkley z3100 Serial# 0081, so it was one of the first made. I reviewed your site, but wonder if I could use the GH 8055AL or the GH 8066AL to change to a Gooseneck hitch from my Demco. I will be adding a generator to the trailer which is pre-wired for it - weight is about 225 pounds. Could you provide some advice?
