For your 2017 Chevy Silverado 2500 4x4 I do recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite helper springs # F2709. I have included a link to a video showing an example installation of this kit for you.
Adding an on-board compressor system is an excellent idea any time air bags are used on a vehicle. It will allow you to add or remove air from the comfort of the truck cab so you will not have to have a separate compressor.
There are different compressor systems you can use. If you are looking for the best option that has the most functions I recommend the Air Command system # F2610. It has a standard duty compressor and is controlled through your smartphone.
