Question:

I would like to install the F2299 air bags but wonder if the hardware on my gooseneck hitch will interfere with the install. I have a model #119 popup hitch Thanks for your help and I hope I can fit your product into my truck.

I am not familiar with the Pop Up Hitch Gooseneck Hitch but I did look over the instructions on their website. It looks as though the brackets on the hitch that attach to the frame rails on the truck mount to the inside of the rails. If this is the case, you will not be able to use the Firestone Suspension Enhancement, # F2299, because it, too, attaches to the inside of the frame rail. I have included a link to the installation details for the Firestone springs for reference.

You may be able to install some SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway-Control Kit, like # SSA23. You will just need the correct kit for your series of truck (1500, 2500, 3500) and for 2 wheel drive or 4 wheel drive.
