Expert Reply:
Yes, you should check out the Hi-Rise Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # 9480. This fifth wheel hitch will install into the gooseneck hitch of your truck and allow you to hitch up to a fifth wheel trailer.
This unit will work with the following hitches:
B&W Turnover Ball
Hide-A-Goose by Draw-Tite or Reese
Under-Bed by Bulldog
I attached installation instructions for this product for you to check out as well as an FAQ on fifth wheel towing.
