Question:
Can I install the reese fifthwheel rails and airbag system? If the reese kit bolts on side of frame would it allow to mount the airbag too?

Expert Reply:
The only airbag kit they make that works with the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit part # RP50087-58 is the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs part # AL57268 for 4x2 models or part # AL57385 for 4x4 models. These airbag kits mount underneath the frame rail whereas the 5th wheel kit mounts on the side of the frame rail. The side mounted airbags kits (Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2582) will not work without drilling which would then void the warranty of either product.
