Options for Correcting Sag on 2010 Ford F-350 Hauling 48 FT Haulmark Gooseneck Trailer
Question:
I have a 2010 Ford F-350 DRW Crew Cab 4x4 that I haul a 48ft Haulmark enclosed gooseneck trailer. My question is when hooked up my rear axle weight is is anywhere from 8,000-8,900lbs and all though ive never measured it ive noticed that my truck sits low in the rear and was wondering if there is anything I can put on the truck to level it when towing?

It sounds like you could benefit from a set of the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs. For your 2010 Ford F-350 you would need part # F2550. The air springs will help to keep your truck level which will improve stability and braking when hauling your Haulmark gooseneck trailer. I have attached a video of the air bags being installed on a 2011 F-250 that you can check out.
Air bags are adjusted manually and with the addition of the Level Command II - Single-Gauge with Standard-Duty Compressor, # F2158, the air bags can be adjusted from inside the cab.
