    Typical 389 Pete car hauler axle is an Eaton E1462W. Which is a 3.5" drop, 14,600 lb. axle.

    I don't know. Personally I would not touch it. If it that much of an issue I would spec a new truck how I wanted it.

    You do know that these are built higher then the 379's to get airflow under the truck to cool the DPF's right?

    You can talk to a Pete dealer and they will send a request to engineering. It will cost you $100 or so but they will give you a list of all the parts you have to change to get what you want.
