Maybe you can help me ??

Just about ready to replace front tires, shocks & steering damper @ nearly 50k miles with Michelin LTX M/S2 & Bilstein. I have the Ford specs for E-350 front end alignment but door sticker says front end is set to final Coach mfg specs. Do we have that information here ?? Also, I have used Bilstein shocks before (off-road), but never on a "over the road" vehicle. Are they worth twice the money over standard shocks for on-road service ??
I use Bilsteins on my race cars, street cars, and previous motorhomes - in my opinion they are well worth the added expense . In each case I have found the damping spot on, with a good compromise between compliance and control. I work with their race engineers on the race cars, and they have been excellent in giving me custom valving. I will soon have Bilsteins on my Vegas...

Btw- start with the Ford specs, but you may want to add some addn'l caster for stability...
