B and W Gooseneck Hitch and Air Bag Kit Recommendation for 2014 Ram 1500
Question:
I have a 2014 Ram 1500 4wd. I want to buy the BandW Gooseneck Hitch. My question is, I do not have Airbags on my truck but Im almost sure I will eventually. Will it be ok if I buy and install the Hitch made for a Ram truck with bags even though do not have Airbags yet

The B and W Gooseneck Turnoverball Gooseneck hitch part # BWGNRK1309 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2014 Ram 1500 regardless of if you have an air bag kit installed so either way you are okay to start with just the hitch. I attached an install video link for this kit for you to check out as well.
When you are ready then the Firestone Coil Rite kit part # F4185 is the correct air bag kit for your truck. It installs in the coils of the rear suspension so frame brackets for a gooseneck hitch would not be an issue at all.
For a compressor kit then I'd recommend the Firestone Air Command I part # F2097 because it comes with a heavy duty compressor which will inflate the bags quicker and it comes with a gauge you will mount on the interior of your vehicle to allow you to easily monitor/inflate/deflate as needed.
