Where Do The Air Fittings Mount For The Air Lift Air Bags On My 2017 Ford F-250
Question:
On the AL57399 does it come with a mounting bracket or do you the buyer have to find your own. Other models come with one. Whats up with this.

The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57399 does not include a bracket for mounting the air fittings on your 2017 Ford F-250. The installation instructions say to drill a 5/16" hole for the air fittings to secure to. It also lists a couple recommended areas to do this such as inside the fender openings, inside the fuel door or on the rear bumper. I like the idea of replacing the license plate bolts with the air valve fittings. This will allow the fittings to be nearly invisible to most and will not risk the lines hanging to low on the vehicle.
The Replacement Inflation Valve Bracket # FWR17607560 can be used if you do not want to have to drill holes or want to use the license plate holes. I have linked an installation video below where this was used when installed on a 2017 F-250. The installer attached the bracket to the receiver hitch on the back of the truck.
