Question:

I have a 2014 Chevy 1500 with a 6 in lift on it. I am looking for airbag helpers for towing. I use a weight distribution hitch for one of my trailers but on occasion use other trailers that do not have the attachments and I don't own them. What products would you recommend? Thanks

We can definitely get your 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500 with a 6 inch rear lift set up with an air bag system to help give you a better ride when towing, and for that, the best option are air bags from Firestone, with the correct fit for your truck being the following:

- Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2430

The Ride-Rite # F2430 are the best due to their construction; these air bags are made out of four layers of reinforced rubber compared to the two layers other air bags are made of. The reinforced rubber is thicker and more reliable, so not only will they give your Chevy the support it needs, they are the most durable options.

The other thing you will need are spacers, and it is important to ensure that the lift kit does provide 6 inches of lift spacing at the rear of your truck. Sometimes lift kits say they give you 6 inches of lift, but the front lift is actually higher than the rear, which is why you'll want to be certain. But so long as you do have that 6 inch spacing at the rear, the correct part is the following:
