Question:
Can this be used in conjunction with the below B and W gooseneck ball for a factory puck system on a 2025 Silverado 3500HD? BWGNXA2061 I have the B and W gooseneck ball system from the link above and am trying to get a good king pin to gooseneck converter.

Hey Dan! Your B&W Ball and Safety Chain Kit # BWGNXA2061 is compatible with the Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter w/ Offset # CAB-C5GX1216. As long as you aren't putting it on a sidewinder or cushioned pin box the Convert-A-Ball is a great way to adapter to a gooseneck hitch.
Any big trips coming up with your 5th wheel before the end of the summer?
