    First off, just wanted to say hi. I have been on the site for a while, just never registered. I have a 2014 1794 that is completely stock.

    I’m looking to upgrade/fix the suspension. My rear shocks are blown so I figured now would be a good time. Looking for recommendations with the knowledge that I tow 7500lbs quite regularly and my mpg already sucks, so I would like to keep it as high as possible. Based on my research, a leveling kit with 5000 or 6000 shocks seems to be most recommended, but I’m unsure how that will handle my trailer weight.

    I included a picture of the truck and me towing for reference. My last scale trip had me around 13.5k fully loaded.
