Expert Reply:
There are a few options for suspension enhancement for your 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 but the main types are air bags like the Firestone kit part # F2709 which fits your vehicle and the rubber spring style like the Timbren part # TGMRCK25D which also fit.
The advantage the Timbren has is a quicker install, no maintenance ever, and a lower price. The Firestone kit has the advantage of fully adjustable whereas the Timbren gives you one preset amount of support. The Firestone kit does require running air lines and having to keep track of air pressure which a compressor kit like the # F2097 makes easier.
Either option would work well but I would go with the Timbren if you are looking for something lower maintenance or the Firestone for if you need to be able to adjust the amount of support. I attached install videos for both kits for you to check out as well.
