The best (and only) air bag kit designed to fit your 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali with the MagneRide suspension comes from Air Lift:
- Air Lift Ride Control Air Helper Springs # AL59565
The MagneRide causes issues with fitment of all other air bag systems which is why you're limited to this option only. It has a load-leveling capacity of up to 2,000 lbs and it's important to note that an air bag kit is only designed to help level a load - it won't increase the weight capacity of your vehicle.
In addition to the air bag kit I also recommend picking up a compressor kit so you can monitor and adjust the air springs on the fly. I like the wireless Air Lift options because you don't have to mess with installing a gauge in your truck plus you can be outside your truck cab and watch the whole system level out. Here are the options I recommend choosing from:
- WirelessONE # AL25980EZ (single path means the air bags are filled to the same psi)
- WirelessAIR # AL74000EZ (dual path means the air bags are filled independently)
