I would be happy to help you. The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs item # AL23FJ you were looking at are confirmed to fit your 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty. They will reduce the strain on your rear suspension, increase safety, and compensate for uneven loads but they will not increase your truck or hitches towing capacity. I have linked an installation video below.
I also recommend the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs - Remote - Bluetooth - EZ Mount item # AL74000EZ. Air Lift's premium, wireless, onboard compressor system with Bluetooth allows you to fill your air springs at the touch of a button. The WirelessAIR also automatically maintains pre-set air pressure levels. It lets you adjust 2 air springs independently with the wireless remote control. This allows you to level your vehicle front to back. It also allows you to get side-to-side leveling of off-center loads by inflating each spring with a different amount of air.
