Yes, The Firestone # F2609 will be a perfect fit for your 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali. With a 5,000 lb load leveling capacity, this should get your truck extremely close, if not perfectly level. You will inflate the bags to about 5 PSI, hook up your trailer, then inflate the bags until the distance between the tire and the wheel well is equal on the front and back of the truck. Keeping the vehicle level will dramatically increase stability. You will also want to get a union tee # F3025-1 so that both bags can be inflated simultaneously.
It is recommended to also get an on board compressor. I recommend the Firestone Air command # F2610. This Bluetooth enabled compressor is controlled via smartphone. App control keeps controls and diagnostics at your fingertips in real time. Single path compressor will keep both bags inflated to the same PSI at all times. Adding an onboard compressor has a major convenience factor, especially if you tow frequently. You can forgo the compressor if you choose. You will have a standard air valve mounted on the rear of the truck you can use to inflate. If you already have a compressor at home you can use that to fill.
I have included links to a few videos if you would like to take a look.
