Expert Reply:
The Firestone Ride-Rite air bags # F2550 will fit your 2008 Ford F-350 4x4 with the B&W gooseneck hitch installed. The hitch brackets are on the outsides of the frame rails and the upper air bag bracket mounts to the insides of the rails. There should be a large hole in the center of each of the hitch brackets (if it isn't there the holes will have to be drilled) and the upper air bag bracket mounting hardware will go through those holes.
The air bags will not interfere with the use of the Companion hitches, # BWRVK3500 (fixed) or # BWRVK3400 (slider), so no worries there either!
