Firestone 7500 Air Bags vs. Air Lift 7500 Air Bags for 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 2WD  

Question:

I am considering the firestone and air lift air bags for my 2019 gmc sierra 3500 two wheel drive (I have a hitch in the bed) and would like to know if there is one kit that you would consider better than the others? I can't tell much difference?

Expert Reply:

The 7,500 lb air bag kit I highly recommend for your 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 two-wheel drive are the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2709 because of the superior construction of the bags compared to the Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL Air Helper Springs # AL57538.

The reason the Firestone air bags are higher in quality than the Air Lift is because the Firestone bags are constructed with four layers of rubber which is reinforced, while the Air Lift bags are a double-ply construction. What this means is that you will get a stronger, more durable air bag with the Ride-Rite that is going to last longer. Additionally, the Air Lift kit requires drilling into your Sierra's frame to install with an in-bed hitch like a fifth wheel or gooseneck while the Firestone kit does not require any drilling.

I have added links to an install of the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2709 for you to take a look at.
