Question:
2001 F-250 4WD, short bed, diesel. Reese 5th whl, camper pkg... installed with rail kit 50082. Does both bags install on the inside rail? Also how do these compare to the Firestone F2550. Being use to duallys and this trk is a single tire, I notice a little wobble or sway does the Jouce system help this issued? Thanks

Expert Reply:
Yes, both air bags of the Air Lift Vehicle Suspension kit part # AL57390 and # AL88390 will install on the inboard side of the frame on your 2001 Ford F-250. The only advantage the # AL88390 has is it has an internal jounce bumper for additional support.
The Reese Fifth Wheel install kit part # RP50082 that you referenced installs on the outboard side of the vehicle frame.
The Firestone kit part # F2550 is a very similar kit but uses a slightly different brackets. Firestone has also come out and confirmed that this kit will work with fifth wheel rails so I would recommend this kit.
