Expert Reply:
The B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck trailer hitch you have on your 2001 Dodge Ram pickup has mounting brackets installed on the outsides of the frame rails. So the Firestone Ride-Helper springs # F2071 won't fit because it mounts on the side of the frame rails too.
For a standard height 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 and 2500 series, I recommend the Timbren suspension # TDR1525H4 as it will mount underneath the bed frame rail and won't interfere with your B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck trailer hitch.
If you have a 3500 go with the Timbren # TDR3520. It will also mount under the bed frame rail.
I included an FAQ for you to view as well.
