Air bags and a 5th wheel Hitch... will it work
After looking at putting air bags in my truck and then ordering the brackets for my DSP 5th wheel rails I noticed that they are both NO DRILL installation. My assumption is that they will be using the same holes on the frame.
My question is can I do both??? Or will I need to do springs instead of the air bags?
Any help would be great

My gooseneck didnt use any factory holes in the frame. it attached in away that just used Ubolts. works great. And I do not use air bags. I have a 2010 FX4 SCab with the max tow. it may be a little different since I can place stuff on my trailer where I want it, but my truck usually sits level. It may be a tad different if your using 5th wheel to tow a TT. But if it doesnt sit level you may want to check the scales to make sure you arent going over weight. There have been a couple threads on this subject. Do a search on gooseneck or 5th wheel towing.
