The low drops are most the time used as a special effect. E.g. measure 141: I don't think you would reach the same effect if you'd play the G# an octave higher.

You're exactly right. Do not change these leaps. Unless your trombonist is incompetent, these will be fine.
I agree with robin about leaving the piece the way it is. From a purely trombonistic point of view, you'd be making the piece less than it is for no good reason.
