Question:
My 2000 F350 4wheel drive recently had a BW turn over ball in bed hitch installed. Originally, the truck had Firestone Ride Rite air springs installed 2071. The brackets for the air springs do not fit well because of the hitch and interfere with the release lever for the gooseneck ball. Are there updated upper brackets that would fit correctly for my application? Thank you,

Expert Reply:
I checked with Firestone and they now recommend the Ride Rite kit part # F2550 for the 2000 Ford F-350 4WD. They state that this kit is compatible with fifth wheel and gooseneck rail kits.
The brackets install on the inboard side of the truck frame whereas the # BWGNRK1108 you have installed in your truck is mainly on the outside of the truck frame
