Question:

I have a 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali with the 68 inch box. Is there a rear air lift kit you can recommend for this?

Expert Reply:

There is an Air Lift kit that will work on your 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali with a short bed. They are the Ride Control helper springs, with the correct part number being the following:

- Air Lift Ride Control Air Helper Springs # AL59565

The # AL59565 is the correct fit for the 5'8" and 6'6" beds of a '17 Sierra 1500, and is also the only option compatible with the Magneride suspension that is standard on the Denali. The Air Lift springs will do a really nice job improving your Sierra's handling and performance when you are towing or even just have a heavy load in your truck bed. The reason why is the air springs will take the brunt of the added weight to counteract the sag and body roll which happens when there is added weight at the back of your truck.

During the installation of the air springs, you are going to want to ensure your air lines are cut perfectly straight, and the best way to do this is by using the Air Hose Cutter # AL10530, and to connect the lines you will want to use the Air Lift Union Tee # AL21838.

Also, I do highly recommend adding a compressor in order to make both monitoring and maintaining the air bags much easier. The best option to do so is a wireless compressor, the Air Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System # AL25980.
