Question:

need air bags for my 1999 F250 Super Duty, Long box 7.3 Power Stroke Diesel, I believe I have a Curt 5th wheel hitch in my truck now. What Suspension Air bags work best to level out my truck when I put in my Slide in Truck Camper?

Expert Reply:

Hello Kirk; for your 1999 Ford F-250 I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57390. It looks like you had Air Lift air bags in the past so I'm sure you already know all about them. This particular model will also be compatible with your Curt 5th wheel hitch so you can use them for towing and your truck camper.

I also recommend adding an air compressor if you don't already have one to make adjustments easier. The Air Lift Load Controller II # AL25592 is a single path system so it will keep the pressure equal between the two air bags. If you want to adjust each air bag individually you can use the dual path # AL25856 instead.

Thanks Robin, Yep, I'm familiar with air bags and the one's I have on my F150 work absolutely great. I'm also going to need a rear stabilizer bar for the truck mentioned in my initial question, the 99 F250 Super Duty, what do you recommend? and will either of them interfere with the other as far as installation? Guess I'm asking which I should put on 1st to eliminate any instillation re-does? e-trailer is my 1 stop shop, you guys ROCK. Thanks again Kirk Frechen

@Kirk a rear anti-sway bar won't interfere with the air bags so you can do it however you want. The Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-153 is the one I would get. If you don't have a factory bar you will also need the # RM-590230-00 for installation.
