Yes, the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Slider Hitch, # BWRVK3400-5W, will work in your 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 w/ 6 foot bed.

The Companion slider 5th wheel hitch will use your B&W gooseneck hitch to mount to the bed of your Ram. The hitch head is adjustable height from 17 to 19 inches and the slider travel is 12 inches from front to back.

I have attached two videos that on the B&W Companion hitch for you to review.
