What Airbags Will Work with 5th Wheel Brackets on a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
Updated 02/05/2019 | Published 02/04/2019
Question:
I have a 2014 crew cab 1500 Silverado. I added air springs to the back to tow a bumper pull camper. However I have bought a fifth wheel trailer and looking to install the hitch. Im concerned about the bracket on the air springs interfering with the kit. Will this work? Pictures attached Thanks

Expert Reply:
The concerns you have are valid as the airbag kit you have now will not work with the frame brackets for a 5th wheel hitch. If you wanted to install a 5th wheel hitch on your truck and still use airbags you would need to use the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs part # AL57204 instead as they mount on the bottom of the frame rail and will allow for use with the frame brackets for a 5th wheel hitch.
I have attached an install video of the above airbags for you as well.
