The SumoSprings part # SSR-211-54 that you referenced is the correct kit for your 2008 GMC Sierra 2500HD and would work well to provide you with additional suspension support for when you are towing your fifth wheel RV. Just the rears would be fine for you application.
Typically the fronts are recommended when the vehicle is carrying a heavy snow plow on the front of the vehicle.
