Will Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Fit 2022 GMC Sierra 3500 Cab and Chassis

Question

Question:

will this fit a 2022 cab and chassis gmc 4 door with no factory bed? if so how does the lower air bag bracket latch to the striker plate on the axle as the factory axle has no lip and is almost smooth not allowing the angle cut in the firestone bracket to grab anything? Thanks

The Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label # F56FV will fit your 2022 GMC Sierra 3500 Cab and Chassis. Even though there isn't a lip the lower bracket will grab onto the striker plate as the hardware is tightened. This combined with the J-bolt will keep the air bag secure.
