Expert Reply:

As long as you have a standard extended pin box that does not measure to be more than 24" long (see photo) then I recommend using the Ranch Hitch Universal 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Coupler Adapter part # AM3139. This adapter has an 8" offset which will be ideal for short bed trucks. It also has 3" of vertical adjustments if you will be towing with multiple vehicles. The adapter is very easy to install which should take around an hour but you will need the slide hammer part # AM3103 for installation. You will also need safety chains since you will be changing the connection point and for that I recommend using part # AM3109 which is specifically designed for this adapter.

I have attached a review video for you as well.
