Im going to use this truck only for work, is going to tow 12-14k capacity dump trailers every day so i wanted to know what system will help me better or even an airbag system? I will appreciate your help. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
For your 2005 GMC Sierra 2500 HD, there are two Timbren rear suspension compatible with it.
The # TGMRCK25S have a weight capacity of 6000 pounds while the # TGMRTT35S have a weight capacity of 8000 pounds.
More than likely you will only need the one with the 6000-pound capacity as the higher capacity one is for trucks that are reaching their payload capacity on a daily basis. Though you're hauling dump trailers every day, that doesn't mean you're nearing your capacity.
Of course, if you're also hauling a lot of weight inside the bed while towing (thereby getting closer to that capacity), then you may want to consider the larger capacity Timbrens.
I've linked to a video installation of the lower capacity (since those are likely the ones you need).
