Expert Reply:

To add a set of air bags to your 2024 GMC Sierra 2500, I recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs item # F2709. These fit both the 2WD and 4WD models. All the mounting brackets and hardware are included for installation and are custom fit.

The Firestone item # F2709 air bags have a 7,500 lbs capacity that will keep the rear end of your Sierra level when you are towing your 5th wheel trailer or if you're hauling a heavy load in the bed.

I really like the Firestone airbags because they use a crimp rolled design which is much more durable than the band clamp used with the Air Lift kits like item # AL57541.

I have attached a couple of pictures below along with an installation video to help you get these air bags set up and show you what they look like once installed.

I recommend adding the Firestone Air Command Compressor System item # F2610. This onboard compressor will allow you to adjust the PSI in your air bags individually from your phone.
