B&W Turnoverball Adapter # BWGNXA4025 is designed to fit in the B&W gooseneck trailer hitch in the truck bed and couple to a trailer that has the ball welded on instead of a coupler. It would not work to tow a 5th wheel trailer but you can use Companion hitch # BWRVK3500. I have linked a video review of this hitch for you.
