Congrats on the new truck Gaetan. To add a gooseneck hitch and a set of air bags to your new 2026 Toyota Tundra, I recommend the following parts:

Gooseneck Hitch - B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit item # BW96FR

Offset Gooseneck Ball - 4" Offset Ball for B&W Turnoverball item # BWGNXA4585

Air Bags - Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs item # F89VV

On Board Air Compressor - Firestone Air Command item # F2610

In Bed 7-Way Connector - Curt Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector item # C56000

The B&W Turnoverball System item # BW96FR comes with custom fit brackets that bolt into pre-existing holes in your Tundra's frame. The unique square receiver allows you to store the included gooseneck ball upside down and out of the way.

Since you have a shorter bed truck, I highly recommend getting the 4" Offset Ball item # BWGNXA4585. This is designed specifically to work with the B&W item # BW96FR. It's going to move the gooseneck ball back 4" towards your tailgate. This will give you extra turning clearance so you don't have to worry about you trailer hitting the cab of your Tundra.

The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs item # F89VV have a 5,000 lbs capacity that will level out the rear end of your Tundra when you are towing your 5th wheel trailer. All mounting brackets and hardware are included for installation. The Firestone Air Command item # F2610 will allow you to adjust the PSI in your air bags from your phone.

To make towing with a 5th wheel easier I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness item # C56000. This harness puts a 7-way connector in the bed of your truck and allows you to keep the one on your bumper. You won't have to get down underneath your bumper to connect your trailer.

Does your 5th wheel trailer have a gooseneck pin box or do you need a 5th wheel hitch as well?
