I was thinking about lowering shackels also. IF I did something like that, I would also want the firestone air bags to even it out under load.

4,500 lbs behind our trucks isn't too bad. I will second superdak05 on the stopping issue! I need to upgrade my rotors due to some of the downhill grades in Northern AZ.
