Between the Air Lift # AL57228 you had on your F-150 and the two similar options for a 2013 GMC Sierra 1500 ( # AL57211 for an 8 foot bed and # AL57204 for a short bed), there are a lot more differences than just the top and bottom plates. The bags, roll plates, fittings, and air lines will all be the same, but that's basically it. With that said, unfortunately, we do not have just these plates currently available.

I highly recommend replacing the entire unit with the one that is designed for your bed length. Your current bags can then be used as spares if ever needed.

I also recommend the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs - Remote - Bluetooth - EZ Mount item # AL74000EZ. Air Lift's premium, wireless, onboard compressor system with Bluetooth allows you to fill your air springs at the touch of a button. The WirelessAIR also automatically maintains pre-set air pressure levels. It lets you adjust 2 air springs independently with the wireless remote control. This allows you to level your vehicle front to back. It also allows you to get side-to-side leveling of off-center loads by inflating each spring with a different amount of air.
