Hey Bruce, I can definitely help with that. The correct slider base is the Replacement Slider Base for B&W Companion Slider # BWRVB3405. This will install directly into the ball receptacle for the B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch in your 2013 Ram 2500, just like your RVB5300. The head unit for the Companion hitch is interchangeable so you will not need a new one.

Hey Bruce, how did the swap to the slider base go on your Ram 2500? Did the new base fit smoothly with your existing Companion hitch head? Your update could make it easier for the next person doing the same upgrade.
