Hello Jamie, thanks for reaching out. Yes, the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs # AL88388 are correct for your 2024 Chevy 1500 ZR2. The internal jounce bumpers are technically not required, but they are a nice addition to have. Like you said, they act as a failsafe in the event of pressure loss. Losing pressure is rare, but there is definitely a peace of mind factor.
If you plan to tow frequently, I also recommend adding an onboard compressor system like the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs # AL74000. This will allow you to monitor and fill the bags using the Air Lift smartphone app, or you can use the included remote. A worthwhile investment if you plan to tow frequently.
Take a look at the videos I linked below. Leave a reply with any other questions or comments and I will get back to you.
