To add a set of air bags to your 2024 GMC Sierra 2500, I recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs item # F2613. These air bags have a 5,000 lbs capacity that will level out the rear end of your Sierra when you are towing your gooseneck trailer.
They are compatible with the B&W Turnoverball System item # BWGNRK1020. All the mounting brackets and hardware are included for installation and are custom fit. These brackets fit both the 2WD and 4WD models.
I have attached a couple of pictures below along with an installation video to help you get these air bags set up and show you what they look like once installed.
I recommend adding the Firestone Air Command Compressor System item # F2610. This onboard compressor will allow you to adjust the PSI in your air bags individually from your phone.
To make towing with a gooseneck trailer easier, I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector - 7' Long item # C58FV. This harness puts a 4-way and 7-way connector in the bed of your truck and allows you to keep the one on your bumper. This makes hooking up to your gooseneck trailer easier and more convenient.
