Question:
I have a bandw patriot slider that I bought new and had installed in my 2006 superduty. Which I had airbags on with no problem. I sold the 2006, and kept the patriot hitch, but not the in bed and frame side rails. I bought a 2016 superduty, and bought the bandw install kit for the patriot, now my frame plates do not line up with the factory holes to install the airbags!

Expert Reply:
I do have an option for you but air bags like the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs part # F2703 won't work with the B&W Custom Installation Kit part # BWRVK2401 on a 2016 Ford F-250. The holes for the air bags line up with holes in the bracket on the driver side but not the passenger side. Therefore, you'll have to go with anther option like the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit part # RAS3611-SLHD.
