Helpful Expert Reply:
The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted - Rear Axle # F2430 is a confirmed fit for your 2017 GMC Sierra 1500. These springs won't directly interact with your springs so it will work just fine with your truck with factory heavy duty springs. These air springs will help absorb shock, add stability, and help you to level your truck when under load.
You may also want to consider adding a compressor for easy adjustment using the Firestone Air Command I - Analog Gauge w/ Standard-Duty Compressor - Single Function - 130 psi # F2158. The air springs come with manual inflation valves, but having a compressor gives you the ability to adjust the ride at any time so if you change the load, you can immediately adjust the ride for the most comfort. It is also really nice to have the convenience of staying in your cab when adjusting the psi level.
