Question:
I have a 2005 Chev Silverado 3500 with DRW and 4x4. It has a 5th wheel hitch and I use the bumper hitch for a heavy dump trailer. Which Air Lift kit would be best for this truck. Thanks Bob

Expert Reply:
As long as your 2005 Chevy Silverado 3500 doesn't have the quadrasteer option, the AirLift # AL88275 LoadLifter 5000 air helper springs kit you'd looked at would work perfectly for you. The kit is compatible with a 5th wheel hitch, and DRW trucks as well.
You might also be interested in an on-board compressor system like # AL25856. Especially since the trailer weights you pull can vary a bit, the ability of add or remove pressure from the springs with the touch of a button would be very convenient.
I've linked to an install video for the air helper spring kit, as well as to a video showing a typical compressor install.
