Not so new question on AS levels

Ok, don't curse the new guy, tried the search engine...bottom line, the front is exactly 2" lower and will be adding the 2" AS kit. Will this kit level it out or will the rear end require a 1" block or AAL to truly level the truck out due to the installation process? Or is it just better to do the rear end due to loading / weight in the back bed or towing?

Thanks in advance.

i personally like a 2-1/2" Level and 1-1/2" Add-a-leaf. i tow and it keep the butt from sagging, leaves LESS of a rake than before. i think ive read the the 2" put oyu pretty close to level...pics attatched

I agree, your truck looks great, has the AAL stiffened your suspension enough that it might be too much effect on the ride?

It's a 4X4, but like the idea of a slight rake much better than the rear sagging...what size / type level, if I'm seeing 2" exactly on the measurements now (to make it level w/o any loads) and would like to prevent sagging in rear?

A 2" AS raised the front of my truck about 2 3/8". I think a 1 1/2" AS would work better for you, if they still make them.
