Question:

What Compressor kit is recommended for the air lift shocks? I want to be able to make adjustments while i am driving if needed and would like the wireless model. I also am driving a GMC 2500 Shorted. I was looking at the Firestone Airbags with the 5k capacity. I am sure that I will not need that much however I would rather have it and not need it than get the 1000K model and then wish I had the 5K model when I get the 5k will the lighter compressors sill work with these airbags?

I recommend the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System # AL74000EZ for your 2015 GMC Sierra 2500HD. This compressor system can be controlled from either the included wireless remote or your smart phone with the Air Lift app. This will allow you to not have to worry about where you the remote or if the batteries die in the remote. Best of all the compressor will monitor and adjust the air pressure in the bags if it changes by more than 3psi from its original setting.

The Airbag Kit is Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2613. You're definitely on the right track by going with the larger bags as you can always adjust the pressure for lighter loads and will have the extra there if you do need it. Just remember these do not increase your payload capacity but rather improve your ride with heavier loads. By maintaining your ride height you don't sacrifice your steering or braking giving you positive control at all times.
