You need to understand that tow rating is based on a number of things, not just the suspension.
The list includes (but is not limited to) brakes, engine cooling, transmission strength, transmission cooling, strength of frame, etc, etc, etc.
It is really difficult (and expensive) to upgrade the tow rating of a vehicle.
Personally I have an F350 that only moves when I need to move something heavy, the rest of the time I drive a (cheap to operate) small car.
