Does Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL Fit 2017 Ford F-450 Super Duty With Factory 5th Wheel Prep Package

Question:

I have a 2017 f450 with an OE 5th wheel hitch, will any of that hardware under the bed interfere with mounting the 7500xl air bags?

I checked with Air Lift for you and can confirm that your 2017 Ford F-450 Super Duty with the factory 5th wheel/gooseneck prep package is absolutely compatible with the Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL Air Helper Springs # AL57577.

There will be no interference and these bags will be a perfect way to help keep your truck level and support its rear suspension. During the installation of these air bags, you are going to want to ensure your air lines are cut perfectly straight, and the best way to do this is by using the Air Hose Cutter # AL10530. Also, I do highly recommend adding a compressor to make it much simpler to control the pressure of the air bags.

For a compressor with the most convenience I recommend the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System for Air Helper Springs # AL25980EZ.

This uses an EZ Mount bracket to attach to your truck and can be controlled with a remote or an app on your smartphone for a simple, worry-free way to control the springs. I have added a link to a review as well as an install of this compressor on an F-450 for you to take a look at.
