Yes, the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System for Air Helper Springs part # AL25980 will work with the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2430 on your 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. There are no issues at all with using an Air Lift air compressor on a Firestone airbag kit or vice verse as the fittings/lines are mostly the same.

The difference between the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System for Air Helper Springs part # AL25980 and the Air Command Compressor System w/ Light Duty Compressor part # F2610 is mostly just brand name but I find the Air Lift air compressors to be more reliable so this is what I would use.

Just for reference, the Air Lift compressor in this kit has a 15% duty cycle and the Firestone compressor in this kit has a 9% duty cycle. The duty cycle simply represents the percentage of time an air compressor can run before needing time to cool down. The Air Lift kit also has a higher warranty period, 2 year vs 1 year.
