I had an original Bilstein leaking oil after only 6000 miles on the coach. I replaced them with Monroe Magnum RV shocks based on a recommendation on this forum. When I pulled the Bilstein's off I couldn't believe how light and flimsy they were. I realize that heavy doesn't necessarily mean good, but every other suspension component on these F53's is pretty robust. The original's are no heavier than most car shocks I've seen and have a rod about the same diameter. The Monroe's are twice as heavy, if that means anything, and hopefully will last longer than 6K miles.
