Just curious..for those who tow trailers, what shocks do you use when you put a load on the pin? Do you use Bilstein shocks and is there a difference as they say in normal driving?

I replaced my stock shocks @ 52,00 with Bilsteins & didn't notice that much difference from stock, but when I pulled my 29' 5th wheel, it made all the difference in the world. There is no more "HUCKETY BUCKIN" over bumps & road undulations. Go for it, you will not be sorry. John In Yelm

Bilsteins are great towing and empty. No regrets.

Bilsteins all the way. Put mine on at 6000 miles,
now have 18000. I tow 7500lbs and boy, what a difference they make. In my book, money well spent.

I put HD Bilsteins on my 1/2 ton about 100k ago and they still work fine. Less skipping around on washboard dirt roads and work great towing 6k.

If TDP can make us disappear, just imagine what the Federal Government could do... :eek:
