Will Firestone Air Bags Fit a 2010 Dodge Ram 3500 Dually with B and W Gooseneck Trailer Hitch

Question:

I have a 2010 Ram 3500 DRW that has a BandW turnoverball goosneck hitch installed. Will there be any fittment issues when using the 2299 kit since the kit mounts against the frame rail?

The brackets for the Firestone Ride-Rite kit # F2299 attach to the bottom and insides of the frame rails. If the brackets for the gooseneck hitch attach on the outside and/or tops of the frame rails then there should not be an issue. I have linked the instructions for this kit so you can compare the installation instructions with the install area on your truck.

If you determine that is not going to work for you then take a look at Timbren springs # TDR3500CA. They install on just the bottoms of the frame rails and are less likely to interfere. They also work well for towing the same load frequently, like when towing a gooseneck, and can also work independently side to side. I have linked an FAQ article on iIrestone and Timbren systems for you.
