Question:
I am looking at putting rear air bags on my 2022 GMC 1500 and need to know which air bags will work. I see most of them say they are not for use on trucks with adaptive ride control. Thanks

Hey Clifford welcome back! The Airlift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57388 you were looking will work on your 2022 GMC Sierra 1500. These air bags have a 5,000 lbs capacity that will level out the rear end of your Sierra when you are towing a trailer or hauling a heavy load. All mounting brackets and hardware are included for installation.
I recommend adding the Firestone Air Command item # F2610 to your truck. This onboard compressor will allow you to adjust the PSI in your air bags from your phone.
If you have any additional questions, go ahead and throw them into the comment box below and I'll be happy to answer them.
