Question:

Thanks for the reply, but what about the compressor Item # F2158. It says the airbags go up to 100psi so not sure why I need the more expensive compressor??

For your 2008 Ford F-350 Super Duty with the V10 engine we have the Firestone air bag kit part # F2550 as a confirmed fit which is what I recommend. It has the highest quality air bags available for your vehicle and also it's compatible with the B and W Turnoverball gooseneck hitch part # BWGNRK1108 that you have as well.

For a compressor kit then the heavy duty part # F2097 will make inflating the bags and maintaining them very easy. The compressor will inflate faster than standard compressors and the gauge inside the vehicle will allow you to monitor and inflate them from inside the vehicle as well.

The # F2158 is a standard duty compressor kit that will get the job done, but since the compressor is a bit smaller it will take a bit longer to inflate the bags. The heavy duty part # F2097 moves quite a bit more air so it fills the bags a lot quicker. Both will work though.
