Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2017 Ford F-150 with B and W Turnoverball Installed
Question:
i have a 2017 F-150 with the under bed BandW hitch and want to install airbags as well, i bought the AIrlift brand but now that the under bed hitch is there the air bag mounts dont fit. Is there a different mount available?

Expert Reply:
For your truck we do have a solution that allows suspension enhancement to fit with a gooseneck or fifth wheel rail kit installed like the B and W # BW77FR you have but the air bag kits won't fit for the reason you mentioned. The mounting brackets interfere with the hitch brackets.
Instead you would want a RAS kit like the part # RAS3611-Y which is a fit for your 2017 Ford F-150 and since it attaches to the vehicle on the leaf springs and not the frame it fits just fine.
