Expert Reply:

Yes, you can install a B and W Gooseneck Hitch part # BWGNRK1108 in your 2002 Ford F-250 that has the Firestone air bag kit as long as the kit you have is part # F2550 installed as this Firestone kit was designed to allow in-bed hitches like this to fit. If instead you had the # F2071 you'd need to replace it with the # F2550 as that kit is not designed for use with in bed hitches.

If you are unsure which kit you have look at where the air bags are relative to the trailer frame. If they are to the inside of the frame you are good. If they are the outside you are not.
