#1 of 6 01 Sierra 1500 with towing package by ramimac

it is time to replace the shocks.
 
I am looking at the bilstein's.
 
1) how much better are the Bilstein HD shocks for towing than the standard hd shock with the package?
 
2) any experience with will the bilstein's help with squat when loaded?
 
3) would there be any advantage to the Comforts in the front and the HD in the back?

1- no comparison
2- no help with squatting; shocks don't carry the load; the leaf springs do
3- IMHO the HD all around would give better handling than a mix
