Question:
Good Morning I have a chevy 1500 2022 with the Gooseneck fifty-wheel hitch kit, Ill like to put air suspension and Im looking at the Air Lift Load Lifter 5000 Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle but i think that the hitch kit may be in the way for the top U bolt. What do you recommend?

Hey Alex, The Air Lift LoadLifter part # AL57288 will fit the 2022 Chevy 1500 as long it's not a trail boss model but it may require drilling. Where the hitch bracket is on the frame will determine if you will use the U-bolt from the kit or not. If the gooseneck hitch bracket is alongside the truck's frame you will need to drill some holes to make the air bag fit.
I contacted Firestone to see if there is a kit that fits your truck with the gooseneck hitch that doesn't require drilling. Shoot me a reply on here so we can keep in touch.
