Expert Reply:
To get the right spacers on your 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 with a 5-inch lift with Air Lift 5000 # AL88288 air bags, you need to measure between the mounting surfaces of the upper and lower brackets, and subtract the design height of the air spring, which for this spring is 5-1/2 inches. Then you can choose the right spacers, and I'll list all of the options, though for a 2 inch to 3-1/2 inch lift you are likely going to need one of the first two.
- 2 Inch Lift: Air Lift Spring Spacers # AL52420
- 4 Inch Lift: Air Lift Spring Spacers # AL52440
- 6 Inch Lift: Air Lift Spring Spacers # AL52460
I went ahead and linked some review videos for you to check out as well as a diagram that shows the measurement of the mounting brackets.
