Question:
Hello, I’m looking for purchase an airbag kit for my 2022 GMC Sierra Denali, 3.0 diesel model. My truck also has a 6” lift on it with 35x12.50x22 tires, in case that plays a factor on the kit needed. I checked one of the products but it stated it was not compatible for the diesel model. Can you provide me the model number of the product kit I would need? Also, I don’t anticipate on purchasing a compressor at this time, but would want to know the product number for that compressor kit, for down the road if I decide to add it to my truck’s airbag system. Thank you so much and I greatly appreciate the help. LFP.

We need to go with a different suspension enhancement recommendation for you because air bag kits like the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2609 you're looking at won't fit with your 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 diesel - this is due to the air spring sitting up against the exhaust. When I reached out to my contact at Firestone he said they've heard of some dealers or shops modifying the exhaust hangers but the newer diesel models are few and far between so they're aren't any kits designed for it specifically.
As an alternative I recommend using the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS4611 because unlike other options you get all of the support you want without any of the harshness.
