Question:
Need a rear axle airbag system for my 2001 Chev Silverado 2500 HD LB Xcab Duramax but I find 151 of them listed when I search. Looking for something from the other line you carry though. Not a Firestone fan.

Expert Reply:
The best airbag system for your 2021 Chevy Silverado 2500HD is going to be the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs item # AL88275. These have a 5,000 lbs weight capacity and are compatible with a 5th wheel hitch.
The reason I chose this airbag kit over others is the internal jounce bumper that these springs have. The jounce bumpers are a reliable back up if your air springs ever lose pressure from either damage or sitting for extended periods of time.
I have linked an installation video below.
I also recommend the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System item # AL74000EZ. This onboard compressor system with Bluetooth allows you to fill your air springs at the touch of a button. The WirelessAIR also automatically maintains pre-set air pressure levels. It lets you adjust your two air springs independently with the wireless remote control. This allows you to level your Silverado from front to back. It also allows you to get side-to-side leveling of off-center loads by inflating each spring with a different amount of air.
