With your 2016 Ford F-150 already having the Air Lift Kit # AL59570 you will need to either switch to a different Air Lift Kit # AL88385 or have a Gooseneck Plate # C65500 fabricated into your bed. Your Air Lift kit was not designed to work with a in bed hitch. It will be much easier to switch to the Air Lift Kit # AL88385 which is going to be compatible with the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BW77FR. This will also ensure you can remove the hitch ball so you do not limit the functionality of your truck bed when you need to haul objects.
I recommend installing the 7-Way # 50-97-410-010 in your bed when you install the gooseneck hitch. This will help protect your wiring from becoming damaged by streatching over the tailgate and down to the bumper connector.
