We can help you with both rear-axle air bag and 5th wheel hitch fits for your 2016 Ford F-150.

For rear air bags you can refer to the linked page that shows all kit options. Click on 2WD or 4WD to see kits for your particular truck. For 2WD you can use Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Kit # AL57268. For 4WD use kit # AL57385.

If your truck is a long bed you can use a fixed (non-sliding hitch) like the Reese 16K hitch # RP30047, and the mating Quick-Install Custom installation rail kit # RP50087-58 and wiring harness # 50-97-410-010.

If you have a 6-1/2-foot-bed truck you can use the same install kit and wiring but you will need a slider type hitch to have enough turning clearance, such as Reese 16K slider # RP30051.

If you have a 5-1/2-foot bed then you cannot use a slider; you will need a fixed hitch and a pivoting pin box on the trailer, called either a Sidewinder or Revolution, in order to have enough turning clearance between the trailer and the truck's cab.

You can see all options by clicking on the linked page and selecting your bed length.
