Expert Reply:
Your 2018 Chevy Silverado 2500 Diesel most likely has a hydro boost system (I do recommend verifying this) so the standard vacuum hose instructions won't be followed when installing the Stay-IN-Play DUO Braking System # SM99251. During installation on this type of setup you will simply leave the factory installed check valve open and not connect it to anything. This will just send a bit more air pressure to the air cylinder.
I verified all of this with my contact at Demco.
