I have the T-bars cranked on my 04 enough to level it and to fit 285s. When I tow my loaded gooseneck, the rear squats and takes the weight off the front end. Then when I hit a bump on the interstate, it feels like the front shocks fully extend (basically the ride is horrible). Would Bilisteins help?? If so do I need the extended ones?? I really don't want to but I may end up downsizing to 265s and crankin the t-bars down a bit.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Put spacers in the front for your shocks and when the shocks are worn out (or before if you want to) get bilstein 5100s or ranchos i think rs5000 or another good shock manufacturer and get them extended length or same length as now and leave the spacers in.

or get air bags for the rear...

he will still need spacers eventually or then a longer shock in the front when they need replacement if he wants to make it smoother and safer.

I noticed on Kennedy's website he advertises the same Bilisteins for stock height and ride height raised with tbars. Are these the ones I need or should I go with the longer ones? Thanks for the info.
