Recommended Air Spring Kit for 2018 Ford F-450
Question:
Your product comes up for the 2018 F450, but then you print, “not confirmed for the 2018 F450” I bought the Pacbrake model that was supposed to fit the truck, I even called the Pacbrake people prior to buying. Fit up won’t work on it. Need to know if it will work, should you not confirm the fit prior to listing. Will this product work for the 2018 F450 ?

I do have an option for you, however the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2703 that you referenced are not designed to fit your 2018 Ford F-450. This particular kit is a fit for the 2011-2013 Ford F-450 and there is not a similar system from Firestone that will work on your truck.
I instead recommend looking at the Air Lift LoadLIfter 5000 Ultimate Air Springs # AL88399. These springs are confirmed to fit your 2018 Ford F-450 as long as you have 4WD and they feature a 5,000 pound load-leveling capacity. This particular system provides the benefits from both a jounce-style spring and air bag setup because of the internal bumpers for superior support. The adjustable air springs (5 psi to 100 psi) guarantee a comfortable ride regardless of your application.
I also recommend considering the addition of a compressor kit like the Air Lift Load Controller # AL25856 so you can adjust the springs from the comfort of your cab.
