Hey Andrew, we can help with suspension enhancement that fits your 2016 Nissan Titan XD and will work great with a fifth wheel hitch but none of the air bag kits we offer fit with fifth wheel rails as they install on the truck frame in the same location.

So instead I would go with the Roadactive kit part # RAS3611-HD as this will give you the support you are looking for, is easily adjustable, less maintenance that air bags, and unlike all other options improves ride quality and stability loaded and unloaded.

For a fifth wheel hitch the B and W Companion hitch and rail kit part # BW79QR would be a great option to give you the best hitch around that would also double as a gooseneck hitch if ever needed. It's a slider hitch too so you'd gain the needed turning clearance as well.

Thank you, J Encouraging to read the reviews and folk’s experiences. Definitely getting the road active kit. My Titan has the factory installed three puck system. I dig that B&W Companion but at $2200 any other options? I’m not against it as I want to do what’s necessary to put the Nissan in a good spot for success. Just checking if there are some good options at a lower price point. Appreciate your help.

@Andrew I think you'll really like the RAS kit! Since you have the OEM puck kit in your truck you'd actually have to go a different route with the Demco AutoSlider part # DM57SV which will fit your current hitch and has advantage of sliding automatically when making tight turns so you don't have to get out and operate a slider at any point. Unfortunately it's about same price but it's really only option which does happen to be a really good option.
