DCSpecial is running them on his truck...I have heard nothing but good things about them. He used to have Bilsteins. I am sure he will be around shortly to give you the specs

I finally put the rears on the truck a month or so ago....only driven it a few times since then. The rear shocks also made a large improvement over the Bilsteins that I had on.
I think they are a great shock and definately would recommend them.
