1956 Ford F350 - Need some guidance - New Owner

I am a new owner and would like some ideas on what, how, etc. to work on this truck. It has a 312 V8, original drive train, and has A/C.

I like the truck overall, and am adding some tool boxes and a trailer hitch today.

I would like to improve the suspension.

I would like to know what my options are (other than new frame and drive train) to change the gear ratio eventually.

ALSO - HOW DO I ATTACH AN IMAGE in HERE ? Below is URL to a picture
