No, but I've installed air ride helper springs. What would having a 5th wheel mounted in the bed have to do with air bag installation?

Hi I installed air lift bags on my 2012 that has B&W hitch and just had to per instructions drill hole in one of the rails for the b&w. then used longer bolts for air bag bracket and hitch.

before ordering airbag kit make sure u say u got hitch rails

It is going to depend on what year the truck is, when the B&W hitch was built, what brand air bags you get, what MODEL and when the air bags where built. The Ride Rite no drill kit that fit where the bump stops mount will be the best bet. The air bags that bolts outside the frame and connect to the top of the spring pack probably will not work
