Firestone Air Bag Suspension Enhancement for a 2014 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71
Question:
I just purchased a 2014 Chev Silverado LTZ with the Z71 pkg ... they have a new axle under this trk ... the one I have is the 9.5inch axle ... when I ordered this truck it wasnt even on the market yet ... so I have one of the first ones ... they said I couldnt get the max trailering pkg because I had the Z71 pkg ... it was one of those you cant get the 6.2 engines without getting the LTZ model .. anyways ... it was a crazy experience ... I am just making sure that if I purchase a set of Air Bags they will definitely fit this truck... please let me know

Expert Reply:
The axle your version of the 2014 Chevy Silverado would be the Z71 rear axle and that should also be a 4 wheel drive model. The proper kit for a 1500 would be # F2430 that you have referenced. But if it happens to be a 2500 or 3500 then you would need to use # F2709.
Also, if you do not want to manually fill the air bags every time you can install a Level Command II kit, # F2219, which will allow you to fill/remove air from the bags from the cab of the truck. I have also linked some FAQ articles for you.
