Expert Reply:
The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 # AL88200 will work with the Air Lift Air Helper Spring Cradle # AL59DQ on your 2013 Ford F-150. The cradle actually replaces the lower roll plate so the air bag will sit directly in the cradle. I'm not sure how much of a lift you have, but you may also need to add spacers to your setup. You can use the following formula to determine the spacer you will need:
BRACKETS - CRADLE THICKNESS (.83") - LIFT SPACER HEIGHT = ____ (DESIGN HEIGHT)
We already have the design height of 6" so the missing piece will be the lift spacer height. Once you have this measurement you can choose from the following:
-Air Lift Universal Air Spring Spacers for LoadLifter 5000 and 7500XL - 2" Lift # AL52420
-Air Lift Universal Air Spring Spacers for LoadLifter 5000 and 7500XL - 4" Lift # AL52440
-Air Lift Universal Air Spring Spacers for LoadLifter 5000 and 7500XL - 6" Lift # AL52460
