Can Firestone Air Bag Help Springs Be Installed on a 2014 Ram 2500 Long Bed with B&W Gooseneck Hitch
Question:
I have a B and W underbed goosneck hitch and wanted to make sure this airbag kit would work on my truck. I have a 2014 Ram 2500 crew cab 4 WD long bed truck.

Expert Reply:
The B&W gooseneck hitch for the 2014 Ram 2500 long bed does not have side brackets that mount to the frame because there is already a structure in place on the truck for it to attach to. This means that since there are no side brackets the hitch will not interfere with the installation of the Firestone Ride-Rite kit # F2706 so it will fit your truck! I have linked a video showing an example installation for you.
I also recommend adding an on-board compressor system such as # F2097 so you can add/remove air pressure from the air bags from the comfort of the truck cab. I have linked a video on this kit as well.
