Recommended Air Bags and Compressor for 2017 GMC Sierra 2500
Question:
I have a 2017 GMC 2500 HD. I am wanting the compressor kit with air suspension. I pull trailers and am also going to be pulling 5th wheel camper. I need to know which to buy. But also when lifting a truck on hoist, how can I let pressure out to zero if the system wont let it go below 5 lbs.?

The air bag kit that I recommend for a 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 is the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2613 which features a bolt-on fit. These air bags will do an excellent job of helping provide extra support while towing or hauling. They won't require removal or deflation when lifting the vehicle by the frame unlike other options as the air bags are strong enough to support the free hanging weight of the axle. This setup will allow you to get the perfect mix between support and comfort.
For an air compressor system, I recommend Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs part # AL74000EZ which is wireless so there won't be any routing of air lines or wires inside the cab. It also features everything on an easy to install bracket.
