Recommended Air Bag System for 2015 Ford F-150 Compatible with In Bed Gooseneck Hitch
Question:
I have a 2015 f150 looking to install air bags on the rear for support do these work with gooseneck hitches looking to install one of them as well.

I do have a solution for you but the Firestone Air Bags # F2582 you mentioned will not fit because the mounting brackets will interfere with brackets for a gooseneck hitch like the B&W Turnoverball.
Instead of the Firestone bags, you would want to use the AirLift Load Lifter 5000 # AL88385 for a 4x4 or # AL57268 for a 2-wheel drive model, which are both compatible with an in-bed gooseneck or 5th wheel hitch since the brackets will mount to different spots on the frame.
If you also want to add an on-board compressor system to help make inflating and deflating the bag more convenient, the Air Lift Load Controller Compressor System for Air Helper Springs- Heavy Duty - Dual Path # AL25856 is a good, cost effective solution. These will allow you to inflate your air bags wherever you are without having to find a gas station, and comes with gauges for the truck so that you can monitor the pressure at all times.
I've linked some review videos of these parts for you to check out.
