Expert Reply:
The Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch # C607-661 you were looking at for your 2012 Ram 2500 with the 6-1/2' bed is NOT compatible with the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3400. This is due to the Curt hitch having a round gooseneck ball hole where the B&W Companion requires a square ball hole.
The only gooseneck hitch compatible with the # BWRVK3400 is the B&W Turnoverball so for your truck you will need to add the # BWGNRK1308 if your truck has a Gasoline engine, or the # BWGNRK1313 if your truck has a diesel engine. Neither hitch will fit if your truck is a Mega Cab.
Lastly you may also be interested in the Curt 7-way Connector # C56070 which plugs in in-line of your factory 7-way and allows you to add an additional connector into the bed of your truck to allow you to hook up your trailer.
I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
