Suspension upgrades

Just picked up a new 5th wheel toy hauler. I am under my max load for my truck. 2011 GMC 2500 HD duramax. Looking at better shocks than factory. Helwig rear sway bar. PPE deep tranny pan & rear differential cover. We run back roads. Not Interstate roads.
What do you think? Other ideas?

    Bilstein 5100s on all 4 corners and a Bilstein steering stabilizer. Wouldnt bother with the tranny pan or diff cover. These LML trucks are plenty capable in stock form and the trans run really cool. Mine has never been over 200 towing 12k lbs in the mountains.
