Is Firestone Ride-Rite Air Spring Spacer Kit Needed on 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTX Z71 Model?

Question

Question:

I have a 2020 Silverado 1500 LTZ with a Z71 package. Im wondering why the 2inch lift spacer is recommended when I didnt think a Z71 is lifted. Perhaps Im incorrect. The Trail Boss however is lifted but is the Z71 LTZ lifted as well?

Expert Reply:

The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted - Rear Axle # F2609 will required the 2 inch spacer on the Z71 Trail Boss model only because of the factory suspension used on that particular model. You will not need the spacer on the LTZ with the Z71 package.
