Hello Aaron,
Adding the Air Lift air bags is a great way to beef up your suspension for the heavy loads you are towing.
The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers - Rear Axle # AL88338 are a great fit for your 2018 Chevy Silverado 3500. The great thing about these bags is that they have the internal jounce bumpers, so if one of your bags were to ever fail you would have the extra support.
I really like your choice of air compressor as well. The Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs - Remote - Bluetooth - EZ Mount # AL74000EZ is definitely my go to. The remote and Bluetooth make it really nice for controlling the air in your bags from the cab of your truck.
So yes, the parts that you picked out are a great fit!
What kind of camper do you have? Do you have a favorite camping spot?
