Anyone know who carries the dual Bilstein setup for the Excursion??

I was looking at the Rancho 7000 but was impatient and got that one.

The fix for your vibration is to find the cause of the vibration and remedy the actual cause. No steering dampener is going to fix your vibration.

What do you think of the RAS system you installed?

I've had the RAS for a while now. I never did tow before I installed it but the difference I felt while driving around and in turns loaded with people is less leaning.

I don't think mine came with a steering damper. I did get the toe set today and it drives much better. He said was toed way to far in. It is less twitchy now. I would like to look into a steering damper. The truck is a bone stock 2000 2WD with no redneck mods.
