If you tow your boat-BILSTEINS, I have put them on all 4 of my Duramaxes, I tried the edelbrock ias or whatever they call them, they rode better empty and towed terrible, Smitty

I run Monroe Reflex on my 05 2500HD Crew. Under severe use they typically last about 1.5 to 2 yrs. They drive and tow well, but could use a bit more damp and less rebound. Ive towed at and over capacity several times, and it rides extremely smooth. If you feel like spending the $$$ buy the Bilsteins, if not the Reflex will work fine.
Typically im just towing a 5000-7500 lb load on a tandem, but it tows my heavy 33 ft 5th wheel pretty smooth.
Tires are 285 75/16 on stock wheels.

KYB Monomax--best bang for the buck. I run them on an F-350 and they ride great.
