Will Gooseneck Hitch fit 1999 Dodge Ram with Air Bags
Question:
Hi! I have seen other gooseneck products that dont fit with some or all aftermarket air ride kits. Does this kit work with Air ride suspension?

You are going to need to remove the air bags in your 1999 Dodge Ram in order to install the Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch w/ Installation Kit # C60734.
The air bag kits we offer for this truck are not compatible with any type of in-bed hitch, whether that is a gooseneck or a fifth wheel.
If you do decide to remove the air bags, the Double Lock gooseneck is a fantastic option. It gets its name from the two pins that lock the hitch ball in place offering you the utmost security for your hitch ball. The hitch also gives you total bed access when you aren't towing as the ball stores upside down, and if you need more clearance you can get an additional 4 inches with the Curt 4" Offset Ball for Double-Lock Gooseneck Hitch # C602.
I have added links to video reviews of the gooseneck hitch and offset ball for you to take a look at.
