Towing Set Up
 
Hey, Just looking for a straight bolt up set up I can use on my truck that works as follows:

I plan to use the B&W 1108R turn over kit but NEED a straight up model/kit number for a air bag kit that will work with minimal to ZERO modification. From my research over the last couple weeks i can use in frame air bag kits but no one lists a Kit part #.

The overall plan is the 1108 hitch, rear air bags on one control, front air bags on seperate control. May consider independent corner control but realistically can't see a purpose or useful reason to go that far. I have run hot shot trucks and drive Semi for a living so I am no stranger to the systems and controls just want a simple and straight to the function kit I can bolt and solder into place so to speak. Truck is going to be hauling livestock, bales and equipment for my farm and I need the BETTER if not the BEST without paying rediculous amounts on useless items.

I know that I have heard both AirLift and Firestone have kits that bolt with a single overlapping whole, if anyone knows the number that would be IDEAL but any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks! :tu:

Its a 2006 F250 Harley Davidson 6.0L to clearify, missed that above.

either one would be fine, i think a buddy of mine ran Firestone on his truck. and they are on the class 8 trucks as well.

Thanks bud, I am looking for the kit # for either, as I will be doing a different control kit for the compressor and in cab controls. I just more or less need a/the kit that will work with the B&W hitch. I know inner frame style kits work but am insighting to the wise for a kit of choice.

my friends fit with the b&w in bed hitch installed

ok but what kit or even brand was he using? I can make my own air kit if need be, just was seeing if there was a written in stone hands down "this is the better if not the best option with that hitch kit" sort of answer.

The kit I am looking at is the Firestone 2400 ride-rite kit with the B&W 1108a turnover plus the Firestone 4160 coil right front bags. Thinking the front may not be necessary but still considering them nonetheless...the truck will be actively hauling a range of farm/agriculture/livestock so total coverage and control is my goal.
