Air Suspension Recommendation for 5th Wheel Towing with a 2015 Ford F-250 Super Duty Lariat
Question:
I’m looking for info on air suspension kits for my 2015 F-250 Lariat Super-Duty for when I’m towing my 5th wheel. I hate that my truck sags so much while towing and trying to see what my options are.

We have exactly what you are looking for with the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2597. These have a 5,000 lb capacity and they are compatible with an in-bed hitch on your 2015 Ford F-250 Super Duty. Please note that if you have a short bed then there is an exhaust sensor located on the passenger side frame rail where the upper bracket mounts for this kit. Please note that any suspension enhancement is meant to help support your OEM suspension and won't actually increase your weight rating.
For your application I also recommend installing the Air Command Compressor System # F2610 because it allows you to adjust and monitor your air bags from your cab or outside your Super Duty. A compressor kit also gives you the freedom of adjusting your air bags anywhere and avoids the frustration of hunting down an air compressor just to keep your pickup level.
Attached are some videos for you to check out.
