Best Air Helper Springs/Bags for 2015 GMC 2500 HD, 4x4, With 5th Wheel Hitch

Updated 10/22/2020 | Published 10/19/2020

Question:

Want to make sure I the right air bag option and review the install video for my truck. I understand the there can be a conflict with some due to the 5th wheel hardware under the bed - Previously purchased from you. I just need some help sorting through too many options. Dont need a compressor on board - Likely to sell the truck in a few years. Dont need the most expensive but dont want cheap either.

The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs is on excellent choice. However, I see that you were looking at the F2430 kit, but for your 2015 GMC Sierra 2500 4X4 you will need kit # F2613 which is a confirmed fit for your truck. I would encourage you to watch the attached video. Not only does it review the installation process, but there is a lot of under the bed footage while the truck is being driven and you will see the difference in handling over bumps and turns while under load. (The video is for a 2020 model year, but the installation is the same.)

We have other air bag choices but our installers tell me that the Firestone's install more easily, and do not have the issue regarding a conflict with under the bed hitch mounting plates.
