There is a discount when there's not a sale going on like now. This May deal ends on Sunday and is about 3x the normal forum discount, so definitely worth jumping on!!
Most shops recommend what they know and what they're used to. Or sometimes what they make the most money on.
The 701s are a fraction longer. Post 1 should list the specs i think705s in the rear.
Shabby! Has maybe another inch or so of travel but couldnt get it as I went up the wheel blocks at an odd angle. Any word on a possibly longer shock for those running sonoran steel bars or kdss blocs (whatever they call it)
People have run those, some even with no weight. Usually guys that load and unload often, or if they tow and need better rear load support for the trailer and its tongue weight. Since you do tow often, the 327 would be a more ideal coil for you.
It would depend on how heavy the tongue weight of the boat is, but if it's really heavy, then airbags inside the coils would be a good way to go. Any added weight on a coil spring causes them to squat, so the only way around that is with added airbags or to use really heavy rate coils that barely squat. Since it's almost always stock weight, you don't want the heavy rate coils.
Maybe 2.25" of lift with that weight. Firmer ride, but ride quality mostly comes down to shocks and shock valving at the end of the day. You wouldn't know the difference unless you try and run both to actually see the difference.
