Hey Robert, congrats on the new truck. For your 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 2500, I recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs item # F2709. They are compatible with the ZR2 package and won't interfere with any 5th wheel or gooseneck hitch mounting brackets, unlike the item # AL28FF kit you were looking at.
These air bags have a 7,500 lbs capacity that will level out the rear end of your Silverado when you are towing a trailer or hauling a heavy load in the back. All mounting brackets and hardware are included for installation.
I also recommend adding the Firestone Air Command item # F99VV to your truck. This onboard compressor will allow you to adjust the PSI in your air bags from your phone.
Do you tow a trailer with your Silverado?
