Can Air Lift for 2006 GMC 1500 be Installed on 2005 GMC 2500
Question:
Hello I have the air lift #57272 on 06 1500 Chevy and just recently got a new truck and the air lift #57275 fits the new truck 05gmc 2500hd. It looks all the same other than the mounting hardware. Is it possible to buy the just the hardware I need or do I have to buy a new kit. Thanks.

You will need to get an all new kit to obtain all of the pieces necessary to install the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57275 on your 2005 GMC Sierra 2500.
I do recommend upgrading, however, to the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2250.
The Ride-Rite are the best option for air bags for yout 2005 GMC Sierra 2500 because they are made with four layers of reinforced rubber, which is a thicker, more reliable construction than the two layers of the Air Lift. This means they are the strongest, most durable air bags on the market and the best way to support the suspension of your truck.
