Truck mods

It doesn't really look lower to me, but I believe you.

I assume those tires good for towing?

My wife's friend with a horse business swears by some Michelin tire for towing because he tows a 6k trailer everyday and said it holds up really well and still does well on unpaved roads even though it's not a real A/T tire. He had the same truck as your new one, but he just upgraded to a dually.

No drop shackles for these trucks that I can find. The stock ones are really short already.

They're what came on it stock so I'd assume so. I will probably replace them with the Michelins when these are done but I'm easily 30k away from needing new ones.

IIRC, drop shackles are longer.
