Suspension Enhancement for a 2012 Ford F-250 with 4 Inch Lift and B&W Gooseneck Hitch Installed

Question:

What air ride suspension would work on a 2012 f250 with a 4 inch ready lift lift kit and a BandW turn over gooseneck hitch I will be hauling a 13k load on a regular basis and trying to figure which kit to use or if it would be beneficial to go back to stock height or just buy a dually. Also which wireless control is the best for the application

Because your 2012 Ford F-250 has a lift kit installed and already has a B&W gooseneck hitch installed I recommend taking a look at some suspension enhancement products that will not interfere or require you to return the vehicle to stock height.

Take a look at the RoadActive Suspension systems we have. There are several models depending on the configuration of your truck. For a 4x4 or 2-wheel drive model that does NOT have top overload springs you can use kit # RAS3611-S. This kit is rated at 2,000 pounds. There is also a 3,000 pound option with the same fits, # RAS3611-SHD.

If your truck does have top overload springs you would instead use # RAS3611-SLHD rated at 3,000 pounds. I have included a link to a video showing an example installation of a system for you.

Any other option would either interfere with the gooseneck hitch brackets or cannot be made to work with a lifted truck.
