I reached out to my contact at Timbren who said while they haven't fit the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System # TGMFK15CB on a 2016 GMC Sierra 1500 with the MagneRide suspension, they have yet to see this kit not fit the front suspension of a vehicle with the MagneRide on it. So even though they haven't test fit it themselves they verified that it will work.

To ensure that it will fit with your 2-1/2" level you just need to make sure that there is about 6-1/2" - 8" between the mounting point and where the rubber spring will make contact when your vehicle is empty.
