Expert Reply:
Hey Frank! The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2250 is the correct kit for your 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500. I'm happy to report that this is compatible with an in bed hitch so there won't be any issues with your B&W setup. I also recommend adding an air compressor like the Firestone Air Command # F2158. This will allow you to adjust the air pressure from the cab of your truck no matter where you go with your 5th wheel. How are you liking the Companion?
