Hi, Looking for a set of helper airbags for my 2015 Sierra 2500. Which of the two kits available is the better/best option? Pros/cons of each? thanks

When it comes to quality, the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs, # F2709, has a slight edge over the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs, # AL88338. Both systems will get the job done, but I would go with the Firestone kit if it were my truck. Firestone has been an industry leader for a long time and these air bags are extra durable.
The way Firestone secures the rubber to the metal base of the bag assembly is more secure as well.
