Suspension Enhancement Recommendations For A 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 With A 3.5 inch Suspension LIft

Question:

I am looking to purchase the fire stone ride rite air bag kit for my truck. Part number is F2613. I have a 3.5 inch suspension lift on my truck and wanted to know if this will fit as I see it says stock suspension. Is there extra hardware I need to purchase for this to work?

When it comes to installing Suspension Enhancement on your 2016 GMC Sierra 2500, The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted - Rear Axle # F2613 will fit your vehicle. It has a 5,000 pound capacity , and enhance your factory suspension for safety and stability when you are hauling heavy loads. It prevents permanent sagging and excessive friction in your leaf springs

Since your 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 has a 3.5 inch lift you would need The Lift Spacers for Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - 4 inch Spacers - Qty 2 # F2370, but to be sure you should measure the distance from the frame to the axle on your truck and a stock truck and then subtract the two, and that will give you the proper lift height. For these spacers have 9.5 inches to 10.5 inches between the upper and lower brackets. In case your measurement doesn't fall into this category you can tell me your measurements and I can get you the correct spacer.

I will attach an installation video link below.
