Expert Reply:
For your 2017 Ford F-150 with Curt fifth-wheel base rails installed, I recommend the Air Lift LoadLIfter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57284. This system will mount to the bottom of the truck's frame, so it can be installed along with your existing fifth-wheel brackets without any interference between the two.
This will provide your Ford F-150 with up to 5,000 pounds of load-leveling support, reducing strain on the rear suspension while also improving safety and ride quality. The air springs will allow you to manually adjust air pressure to get even load distribution regardless of your cargo or trailer tongue weight.
All of the necessary hardware is included. I have attached the installation instructions that you can also take a look at.
I also recommend looking into adding a compressor system like the Air Lift WirelessONE # AL25980, which will allow you to adjust the air springs from inside or outside your cab with a simple hand-held controller. I have included a short video demonstration on this product that you can check out.
