Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for a 1997 Ford F-250 Towing Fifth Wheel Trailer

Question:

My family and I recently purchased a fifth wheel, we own a 1997 ford f250 4x4. The experts here recently helped me weed out a wiring issue which was greatly appreciated. My question is, when hitched to the 5th wheel the truck sagsinch 1.25 which as far as I know is not much, doesnt make much sense but it is what it is. I would feel more comfortable with air Springs of some sort after things I have read. We have a bandw turnover ball installed in the truck with a companion for the 5th wheel. Is there any no drill helper Springs available for my truck? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

I have great suspension enhancement solution that we can recommend, but the air spring kits for your truck would interfere with the install brackets of the Turnover hitch you have installed so a better solution would a Timbren like part # TFR250SDE. This will provide you with the suspension support you are looking for and would not interfere with the frame brackets of your fifth wheel hitch.

I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well. You'll notice there is no drilling required.
