Can the Air Lift LoadLifter Air Springs Fit a 2012 Ford F-250 with the Reese # RP50026-58 Base Rails
Question:
Hello, I have installed part RP50026-58 Reese base rail kit on my 2012 f250. I would like to add part AL88396 to my truck. The instructions are not 100 clear and before I buy would like to know one item. Can I install these air helper springs without removing or loosening the fifth wheel rails? I believe I can but wanted confirmation this is possible. If not, is there another air helper spring that I could do that with? thx mike

Expert Reply:
Yes, you are correct. The Air Lift LoadLifter Air Springs, # AL88396, are compatible with the Reese Quick-Install Custom Base Rails, # RP50026-58.
The Reese mounting brackets has holes already drilled that match holes in your Ford's frame. The Air Lift spring's brackets will match up to one of these frame holes when mounting to the frame of your vehicle.
I have attached an installation video of the Air Lift LoadLifter springs being installed on a 2012 Ford F-250 for you to review.
