As the OP we are getting a bit off track here. I'm happy to engage in a Bilstein discussion but perhaps in another thread on shocks. I'm still hoping there are some other STC owners out there who might post about their experiences.

I had a great conversation with TheDavidZoo about their rig and truck at TCW in NH. I would not be comfortable at 5,500 pounds with my truck but I expect I would be considerably below that weight for just the 2 of us.
Bill Penny has an STC on a SRW Chevy and he has offered to let me take it out on the road to see how it handles. Granted, it isn't loaded up for weeks in the woods but he uses that setup when he travels with his wife (at least that is what we were told).
So are there other STC owners willing to share?
