Ask questions. Expect to talk to the ignorant.
Wow...

Mine was riding two inches high in the front but got half of that back by going with upgraded tires and removing a bunch of excess camping supplies I didn't really need.

I also removed the heavy and uncomfortable couch that was along the back window that had a bunch of storage under it (which was where a lot of that extra stuff was).

The 'E' range tires were one inch taller than the 'D' range tires I had on it.

My 5'ver now tows a little over an inch high in the front, which I think is OK for now.

I do have room to lower the hitch, but I think I will leave it the way it is for now.

My question, will I have issues towing our 8289WS level with either of the 2500 or the 3500?

Also is the 3500 higher than the 2500?

Thanks in advance.
Our setup is in my signature. No issues whatsoever.
