Question:
I was curious if this compressor would work mounted to a fifth wheel camper with an air ride hitch? My fifth wheel has a trail air hitch installed and Im looking to make it easier to adjust the air pressure in the air bag with an on board compressor. The camper has a battery on it that stays maintained by the towing vehicle when connected.

You could use a compressor with the air bag that is in your air ride 5th wheel trailer pin box. But the heavy duty one, # F2097, is a bit overkill. You could go with a more basic set up such as # AL25850 and save some money.
If you need one rated higher than 100 psi you could use # F2158 which is rated up to 130 psi.
