Helpful Expert Reply:

The correct Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for a 2020 Ram 3500 is part # C16430-204. The Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit is a custom bolt-on fit with no cutting or drilling required into the frame. If you don't already have a fifth wheel hitch, the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16140 is my recommendation because of the interlocking dual jaw system which has a tight grip on the king pin and works to reduce chucking and jarring.

The Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit part # C16430-204 can absolutely be used to tow both fifth wheel and gooseneck trailers on a 2020 Ram 3500. In order to tow a fifth wheel trailer you'd use the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16140 but in order to to a gooseneck trailer you'd use the Curt Above-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch part # 16055 which fits directly into the above rails.
