Question:
Will this kit work on a 2018 f-150 with a 6inch suspension kit. Also can you recommend a good on board compressor with is kit.

I have another option for you, but the Air Lift Ride Control # AL59570 will not fit your 2018 Ford F-150 since it has a 6" lift.
Instead I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers # AL88268 if your truck is a 2WD, or the # AL88385 if your truck is a 4WD model.
Since your truck has a 6" suspension lift you will either need the 6" Spacer # AL52460, or a 4" spacer # AL52440. A lot of times a 6" lift is not truly 6" so I highly recommend installing the springs, and measuring from the bottom of the spring to the top of the lower mounting bracket to make sure you get the correct one for your specific lift.
For a good on-board air compressor kit I recommend the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs # AL74000 as it allows you to adjust the pressure in each bag individually, and uses the included remote or your smartphone instead of requiring you to mount a bulky analog gauge like other systems.
I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
