The Lippert Center Point by Trailair Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade is perfectly compatible with your 5th Airborne Premium Fifth Wheel Air Ride Coupler. We have not received any reports of their being too much cushion when using the two together, or a need to switch to a solid pin box.

Since you have a triple axle, you will want the Lippert Center Point by Trailair Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade - Triple Axle # LC1565401 instead of the # LC1565391. You would need to use the two different fill valves and air gauges this comes with. According to Lippert, this cannot be used with a compressor system.

The air bags should be maintained at the pressure indicated in the manual, which is 5 psi per 1,000 lbs of trailer weight at 70 degrees ambient temperature. Should the air bags fail, you can still safely tow your trailer.

I have attached a review video of the suspension system for your reference.
