Newbie with 2wd leveled

Hello I have been a lurker for awhile now. I finally went ahead and bit the bullet and put tires and wheels on my truck. I started with 2" drop shackles and decided to go up in the front, so off came the shackles. Here is
stock:

Tires and wheels:

Looks great. How much did you go in front and did you do anything other than stock in back?

Unless you do a good amount of hauling and towing, you might want to just go with 1.5" blocks in the back. So easy to install plus they do not stiffen up the ride like the AAL will. I bought some OEM blocks from a guy on here. 50 bucks and about 30 minutes to install.

I need to raise the front of my truck a bit!
