Hello Gene, thanks for reaching out. We do offer an air bag kit that will be compatible with the Hellwig # HE56FR sway bar on your 2016 Chevy 2500 Diesel. What I recommend are the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2613. These are 5,000 lb capacity air bags. They are going to be compatible with aftermarket sway bars, as well as in bed gooseneck or 5th wheel hitches.
Take a look at the install video I linked below. Feel free to reach out with any other questions or comments and I am happy to get back to you.
