Question:
Hello, I just bought a 2011 Ford F450 wit the OEM goose neck under the bed receiver. I saved my Draw Tite Hi-Rise Companion 5th Wheel hitch. i was using the square adapter for the B and W gooseneck hitch i installed in my 1997 Ford F350 i still have the round adaptor from the Draw Tite kit, but it wont fit the OEM 2011 Ford gooseneck. Is there another adapter the I can buy to fit my newer Ford?

There isn't a way to adapt the Hi-Rise # 9480 to the Ford factory prep package on your 2011 Ford F-450. There are a couple of options for you. First, if you want to use an adapter you can use the Andersen Ranch Hitch, # AM3100. I have linked a video review of this adapter for you.
The other option is if your F-450 has the 4 pucks and not just the gooseneck hitch. There are 5th wheel hitches that will fit directly into the factory pucks. Here is a list of ones that will fit directly without the use of an adapter:
Reese M5 rated for 27K # RP30922
Reese M5 rated for 20K # RP30921
B&W Companion rated for 20K # BWRVK3300
Curt rated for 24K # C16039
Curt rated for 20K # C16530-16017 or # C16034
Curt rated for 16K # C16520-16017
I have linked videos on all of these hitches as well.
