Question:

I going install a goose neck hitch on my 2014 150 6 1/2 box and I want to install a set of air bags will I have a conflict with the brackets? What products would you recommend for this application.

It really depends on the air bag system you go with and the gooseneck hitch you choose. A lot of the time the mounting brackets for both systems will occupy the same area of the trailer frame so there will be interference. Looking at the air bag systems for your 2014 Ford F-150 like the part # F2525 it would seem pretty hard to fit a hitch in that area.

A better solution would be a Timbren system # TFR1504D that will give you the same support as an air bag kit and then a gooseneck hitch like part # 9465-37.

The Timbren will mount to the bottom and inside of your frame rails whereas the # 9465-37 will mount on the outside so they would work well together.
