Thanks for all of the info I can definitely get you set up.
For the rear air bag kit I recommend the Firestone ride rite # F2597. This is a 5,000 capacity air bag and the kit will be compatible with your in bed gooseneck hitch. For a front air bag we have the Firestone coil helpers # F4160. This air bag installs inside the factory coil spring, and add additional stability to the front springs. I imagine with both of these installed, you will be extremely close to level, if not perfectly level, even when towing heavy loads.
Now that leaves us with the matter of filling the air bags. If you install both kits per instruction, you will have four air valves on the rear of your truck. You have the option of adding an air line tee # F3273-1, so that both air bags can be run to the same inflation valve. Keep in mind this will allow both bags to inflate simultaneously, to the same PSI at all times. This way you can have one valve on the back for the front air bags, and another for the rear air bags.
If you want to add an on board compressor you have that option as well. For that I recommend the Air lift wireless compressor # AL25980EZ. This is a wireless compressor that can be controller via the air lift smartphone app, or with the included remote. This is a dual path compressor, so you would need to use two air line tees # F3273-1 if you want to use it for both the front and rear bags.
I have linked a few videos below if you want to take a closer look. If you plan to install yourself, you will find the install video very useful.
