Also find out what the programming is on the transmission. You may want to update to a better set up once you get it. I think that one can be done over the air like mine as well if you know the program you want.

Add some solar panels to it as well so it keeps the batteries topped off while sitting. Would not worry to much about your lithium getting charged from them if you run long distance.

Also if you are adding some extra batteries you may want to upgrade your alternator. This is the one I ordered for mine when I had It built.
PJXMUX ALTERNATOR 320 AMP LEECE-NEVILLE HIGH OUTPUT ALTERNATOR WITH 12 0 REMOTE BATTERY VOLTAGE SENSE (12V)

Works great and keeps the batteries topped off pretty fast on my set up.

I also bought this One moment, please... for the topper. It has now ripped a little bit in the middle. Not sure I would buy another one but they are supper comfy to me especially in the winter time when they harden up from the cold. Might be able to get one cheaper and cut yourself. They are well worth it if, just wish it did not tear like it did. Would love to get a Purple mattress topper but not sure they make that size and not sure if you can cut it down or not.

You should be able to get 9's with 15K so check and see what kind of tires you have and the software on shifting and other stuff.

On a load now from MO to UT then to WA and it was 15 K starting out with about 7500 the last leg. I am at 9.2 for the trip and 10.2 from UT to WA. But I do have a lift axle on my trailer that helps and the Flow Below on truck.

 

You should take it and get an alignment done as well, sure you know this. I did not get mine align done after coming out of the factory. Was going to do it after about 6 months and totally put it off. Ended up waiting too long and cost me some decent miles on my Steers. If you are around Kansas City anytime go see Chad at Alignment Solutions. He will knock it out within 30 minutes and it will be right, Also will give you heads up on anything that needs fixed being the truck had been In a wreck before on the front. if on Facebook you can message him on messenger and he will answer pretty fast.
