There sure is Bruce. It's the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs item # AL57388. This kit comes with custom fit brackets that are compatible with your 2026 Chevy Silverado 1500 ZR2 with the 3.0 diesel engine.

The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 item # AL57388 have a 5,000 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 bed.

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.

What has you looking at adding air bags to your Silverado? Do you pull a trailer or use your bed for heavy loads? Feel free to answer this and throw in any other questions you have, where it says Add Comment.

Bruce I have been running the Airlift 5000 system on my 2024 ZR2 with 3.0 for a while now. The adjustability whether I'm pulling a lawn mower or a tractor is amazing. It makes the truck extremely stable under any condition.

I installed the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 on my 2026 Chevy Silverado 1500 Trailboss with the 3.0 Duramax. They were easy to install and the work great in leveling the truck when towing my camper. I run about 5 psi empty and about 35 - 40 psi when towing my 7500 lb camper it helps level the truck that last little bit the weight distribution hitch won't do.
