I can satisfy all my challenges by installing a Gear Vendors, more gears would be cool, the 700r4 and the 410's and smaller than stock tires take away from top end. My truck loves to run at 2100-2400 rpms, and it cruises just fine for, even pulling the trailers
It should! Those are torque monsters! I'm surprised more people don't use them for towing.

I read where a guy filled his tubes up with water and put them in the freezer to remove the dents. I never have done this but it sounds possible.
