Raise Rear Of Truck

I know I read about raising or lowering the rear end of these trucks up to 2 inches, but I searched and cannot find anything. I recall a TSB, maybe. Anyone have any info? My 07 dually with my camper sits pretty low, especially compared to my SRW 04. With my horse trailer attached, and hitch ball raised several inches, I am still dragging my chains on a pretty regular basis.

Re: Raise Rear Of Truck

the truck squats a bit with my 4000 lb camper and the trailer loaded. I have air bags, but they only help a little. Too much air and it feels like I am sitting on a sponge.
