Question:
Will it fit my truck with a BandW 5th wheel in bed hitch

Expert Reply:
The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle # AL57385 you were looking at will fit perfectly on your 2018 Ford F-150 with a B&W 5th wheel hitch in the bed as long as it is 4WD model and the 5th wheel hitch you have is not the B&W Turnoverball gooseneck hitch with the B&W Companion 5th wheel hitch.
The Turnoverball takes up more space than traditional 5th wheel mounting brackets and will not allow the U-bolts to fit around the frame of your truck.
If your truck is a 2WD model you will need to use the # AL57268 instead.
Both of these systems have a 5000lb load leveling capacity to level your truck while towing your 5th wheel trailer, and this support can be fine tuned by adjusting the air pressure in each air helper spring.
To keep from having to manually inflate the air helper springs each time your are ready to tow your trailer I recommend adding an on-board air compressor kit like the Air Lift Load Controller II Compressor System for Air Helper Springs - Single Path # AL25592 which will allow you to adjust the air pressure in the springs from the comfort of your driver seat.
I included a few video reviews of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
