The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2542 will fit on your 2013 Ford F-150 as long as it is not a Raptor model. I have linked a video below that shows us installing it on a 2011 F-150 without an in bed hitch. This set of air bags will allow for you to use a B&W Turnover Gooseneck Hitch # BWGNRK1104 if you need an in bed hitch.
The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2525 will also fit your F-150 if you never intend on using an in bed hitch or have the Raptor or FX2 trims.
The Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs # AL74000EZ is the compressor system I recommend using. It features a wireless remote that will allow you to adjust the air pressure in the bags from outside the vehicle or while you drive without having to run air lines into the cab. The smart compressor will maintain the air pressure to within 3psi of your settings. You can also use your smartphone via the Air Lift app to control the bags as well if you do not want to have the controller to keep track of.
