Body lifts basically make installing a gooseneck hitch impossible as the bed of the truck will be taller than where the ball should come through.
Plus with a truck that sits as tall as yours you will have a nearly impossible time towing a gooseneck trailer level without bed interference. The lift kits basically have to go so that you can install the # 9465-54 and tow a trailer.
With just the suspension lift the hitch will install, but even that the truck is going to sit too high.
