Hi RJ,

With the information you provided the only compatible kit is going to be Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2550 as long as our F-250's GVWR is over 8,500lbs. If you look in the door jamb or glove box there should be a sticker listing the GVWR of your F-250 so you can confirm. Air bag installations can vary in difficulty depending on how much space you have to work. With you having a Turnoverball hitch you'll likely have a little bit of a struggle getting everything in place but if you take your time and follow along with the installation video I've attached below it should be a bit easier.

If you want an on-board compressor to adjust the psi level of your air springs on the go then I recommend the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System # AL25980EZ. This system comes with a U-bolt too clamp it to the frame instead of having to drill. It utilizes a remote and/or Bluetooth app so you won't have to run any lines into the cab or mount anything to the dash.
