Question:
50026-58 or 56016-53 Are either of the subjects rail kits compatible with either Firestone air bag part number 2535 or the Air Lift part number 88396? 2016 Ford F250 Super Duty 4x4 Short Bed
asked by: Chris D
Expert Reply:
Yes, both installation kits, # RP50026-58 and # RP56016-53 will work with Firestone air bag kit 2535 (which has been discontinued) or Air Lift kit # AL88396. The brackets for the 5th wheel install kits mount on the outboard sides of the frame rails while the upper brackets for both air bag kits install on the inboard sides of the frame rails. The Firestone kit that fits the 2016 Ford F-350 4x4 is # F2703 and it too is compatible.
The bolts used to hold the air bag brackets on will also go through a hole on the 5th wheel brackets.
