Air Bag Kit for 2016 Ford F-250 Compatible with B&W Turnover Ball Hitch  

Updated 09/23/2025 | Published 03/25/2019

Question:

I have a 2016 F-250 with a BandW Turnover Hitch. I would like to install the Airlift Load Liftee 5000 Ultimate #88396. I read and it says it works with most 5th wheel hitch applications, but says nothing about the gooseneck. Will this combo work? Thanks.

Firestone air bag kits # F2703 (7500-lbs) and # F2597 (5000-lbs) fit both 2WD and 4WD versions of your 2016 F-250 and both are compatible with your in-bed B&W hitch # BWGNRK1111.

If you want to add a compressor to give you easiest pressure adjustment you can use single path kit # F2097.

Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs # AL88396 fits your 4WD 2016 Ford F-250 but my contact there could not give me 100% assurance of compatibility with the B&W Gooseneck hitch # BWGNRK1111 on your truck. They have not installed this kit on a truck with your exact configuration.

Can you send me a link for the installation video for the air bags on a 2016 F250 with the B&W flip hitch already installed. I have my truck at one of your installers but they are wanting to remove the hitch.

@Daniel The Firestone # F2703 and # F2597 are made to be compatible with an in-bed gooseneck or 5th wheel hitch. We do have a video showing this kit being installed, but the truck has a 5th wheel hitch in the bed. We do not have anything showing a truck with the B&W Turnoverball installed. We have had many customers report back to us the Firestone kits do work with the B&W gooseneck so your installed definitely should be able to make it work.
