Should I Go With The 5000 Pound Firestone Air Bags Or The 7500 Kit For My 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500?
Question:
Are the 5000lb or 7500lb springs going to be best for my 2024 Silverado 2500HD?
asked by: Tom S
Expert Reply:
I recommend using the 5,000LB Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2613 over the 7,500LB Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2709 on your 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. The additional capacity is not going to benefit you in any way since your truck is not capable of hauling a payload over 5,000lbs. You also won't need to invest in a high pressure compressor to reach the 150psi rating the larger springs are capable of reaching.
The Firestone Air Command Compressor System # F29VV will allow you to easily adjust the pressure in the air springs from either the included wireless remote or your smart phone using the Ride-Rite app.
