Hey Robert! For your 2020 F-150 Rough Country I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57385. Since you have a 6" lift you will also need the Air Lift Universal Air Spring Spacers for LoadLifter 5000 and 7500XL - 6" Lift # AL52460 for installation.

I also highly recommend adding an air compressor like the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System for Air Helper Springs # AL25980. This will allow you to control the air bags from the cab of the truck no matter where you go.

What are you towing/hauling with the F-150?

@RobertM I used airlift’s compressor kit and it included a pressure gauge/pump switch and bleed valve all built into a small panel that I mounted under dash. Try Airlift #26156

@RobertM what Darryl mentioned will do it but you still need a 1/4" NPT air pressure regulator of some kind to step down the pressure from your air tank. The regulator and a paddle valve or solenoid valve will do it. We don't have the parts right now to put that together, everything is packaged together with the air compressors.
