Hey Joseph, thanks for reaching out!
The Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter w/ Offset # CAB-C5GX1216 is a universal system and will fit just fine with both, just as long as your pin box doesn't have an air ride feature.
Did you just pick up the 5th wheel trailer, or are you just looking for an easier towing setup?
