Thanks for checking in with us, Bryan!
The Air Lift Ride Control Air Helper Springs # AL59530 will need to be installed on a stock-height vehicle because the Air Lift Air Helper Spring Cradle # AL59DQ along with their spacer kits are only compatible with their standard air bag kit solutions. If you needed to install an air bag kit that utilizes spacers for a lift kit then you'll want to go with the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2245 instead.
Then to choose the correct spacer you'll need to measure between the distance where the mounting brackets will be installed and choose one of the following spacers depending on what you find:
6-1/2" - 7-1/2" - Lift Spacer # F2536
7-1/2" - 8-1/2" - Lift Spacer # F2366
8-1/2" - 9-1/2" - Lift Spacer # F2367
9-1/2" - 10-1/2" - Lift Spacer # F2370
11-1/2" - 12-1/2" - Lift Spacer # F2374
