Not sure about the 2008 model year but Hydrastar electric over hydraulic systems are compatible with GMC/Chev - my 2013, 2017, and 2019 trucks were literally just plug and play (all were GMC).
I'm thinking it might be a connection issue (wiring issue somewhere) as suggested. It would be difficult to believe they would make a system that would exclude the compatibility of GMC/Chev as they sell about a third of all the trucks on the road !!!
