I used them on my 05 1500 silverado shorty. It had the Hotchkiss TVS system and handled like it was on rails. I needed to tow a large skidsteer every now and then very short distances, and had to have the helper bags. I just used a schrader valve and aired them up when needed. They were a great way to increase the load capacity. I highly recommend them. Man I wish I never sold that truck.
