Question:

I just got a 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 and figure we need air bags since our trailer is so heavy. What So you recommend?

The air bags I recommend for a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 are the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2596 (4x4 and 4x2). The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs are going to do an excellent job of helping to level the truck with a heavy load or trailer attached. This is important because an un-level ride can lead to stability and braking issues. Furthermore, the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs are adjustable so you can always get the perfect combo of comfort and support which is a feature specific to air bags. The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs are also a bolt-on fit with no drilling required and will work with an in-bed hitch.

In order to really get the most out of your air bags, I recommend adding a compressor kit. The Air Command Compressor System part # F96VV is wireless so you won't have to run any wires or airlines into the cab which cuts down on install time and modifications required.
