Question:
I already have the Firestone 2600 airbags on my 2017 F250 4x4 6.7 liter. I noticed in other questions that it was recommended to use the AirLift brand airbags. Will this BWGNRK1116 not work for me now?

Expert Reply:
The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2600 that you referenced are for a 2017 Ford F-250 2WD. If you have a 4WD then you would most likely be using the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F35FV instead.
If this is the case then the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit part # BWGNRK1116 will work for you as the gooseneck brackets install on the outside of the frame rails whereas the airbag brackets install underneath the frame rails.
If you do however have the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2600 then they will not work because they install on the outside of the frame rails as well which is in the same location as the gooseneck brackets.
I have attached a photo of the where the brackets for the gooseneck hitch mount as well.
