Firestone airbags with B&W hitch???

Anyone using Firestone airbags with the B&W turn over ball hitch on a 97' F250??? I emailed Firestone and they say they have only 1 application for my truck which will interfere with the B&W hitch. With that said, I know there has got to be someone here that has figured another option...... prove me right!

Re: Firestone airbags with B&W hitch???

It appears Firestone airbags with B&W hitch are avaible only from 1999 thru 2007.

However if the 1997 is the same as the 1999 then they would work; however slight changes in the shock mounts and other brackets will make it a no go.

Search for another brand called Air Lift. They may have the application you need. I tried these first on my 2003 with B&W and it was a no go because of the short bed?
