raising the front of the tunnel as well as the rear would put less pressure on the skis and might affect steering, not sure how much would be too much...There are sleds that have had different longer suspension installed and they have had problems with the front end (skis) digging in unless you add some lift up front.  There was a place that made an adaptor to add IFS to the front , BUT at what point do you just hang it up and buy a sled designed for more travel??

I can see jacking up the rear a bit for stud clearance, or to keep the running boards out of the snow, but redoing the whole sled sounds to me like a waste of time and money. I'd go with a second sled that could handle the deeper powder, rougher trails, etc.
