Default First Tamiya truck build, MACK Dump truck 6x6

Hey guys I just purchased a abandoned bruder dump truck conversion from a fellow modeler and I decided to give it new life with a 3d printed MACK Cab. I have already done some body work to the cab which includes a few coats of high build primer and sanding it down, making body mounts and adjusting everything to line up and look correctly. the chassis I painted a redish orange color to match the full size rigs I see pictures of on google "I know really fancy" lol. I think I will go ahead and make it a 6x6 with a driven front axle. This is where I run into a question for you guys. If I put a TLT axle in the front can I get the ride height back down to where it is with the solid axle? It doesnt look like it will work mounted above the spring and mounting the axle under the spring would raise the ride height alot. What have you guys done to make it work Im curious?

Thanks
