Does A 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 X31 Need A Spacer Kit When Installing Firestone Ride-Rite Air Springs

Question:

I have a 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 X31 If I buy F2609 Air bag kit will I need the F2366 spacer kit because of the X31 package or is that just for the A4?

The X31 package for your 2019 GMC Sierra doesn't add any lift like the AT4 package does so you shouldn't need the Lift Spacers for Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - 2" Spacers - Qty 2 # F2366. If for some reason the dealership installed a lift kit on the vehicle after receiving it from the factory you would want to first install the brackets of the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted - Rear Axle # F2609 and measure the distance between them to find the measurement of the lift. I've attached our page of Firestone Ride-Rite spacer kits if you find a different lift measurement.

If you would prefer an on-board compressor to easily adjust the air pressure of your airbags then I recommend the Air Command Compressor System w/ Light Duty Compressor - Wireless - Smartphone Enabled - Single Path # F2610. This Bluetooth-enabled compressor system wirelessly connects to your smartphone and turns it into an air spring control interface. The app lets you adjust and monitor your air springs and single-path system keeps both air springs at the same air pressure.
