Expert Reply:
For a 2004 GMC Sierra 1500, I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs item # AL88250. This system is custom fit for your Sierra and bolts in with included hardware. It has a 5,000 lbs load leveling capacity.
The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 item # AL88250 fits both the HD and LD models.
To operate the airbags from inside the vehicle, I recommend using an air compressor kit like the Firestone Air Command I item # F2097. This kit comes with an air compressor, single path controller, and all other airlines and fittings needed for installation.
