Hi Angel; are you wanting air ride on the trailer? I see you also looked at air bags for vehicles. For your gooseneck trailer you can use the Lippert Center Point by Trailair Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade # LC1565391 (tandem) or # LC1565401 (triple axle). This is designed for axles with a capacity up to 8,000 lbs. Make sure to check your axles for compatibility. The Center Point will add air ride suspension to your trailer and raise it 2".
