04-08 Rake?
Look at this pic, compared to my sig:

That's also with 300lbs of sandbags in the back.
Are you still running the Hankooks? If so, you won't believe what an enormous difference new tires made. I've driven though anything from friends 4x4 Blazer has gone though this winter with my Firestone Destination A/Ts. I really like them.
The rake is pretty bad on my truck. I don't have a recent picture, but it seems worse now that I took the steps off. I'll level it out with a 3" drop leaf kit after the wheels and tires.
mine is 2.5" lower in front than the back on an 06' 2WD long bed. I really would like to level it again, but it looks like I'm going to replace the truck this summer, once it hits 100K
same type of tires as 2008_XL but bigger. I believe 31.6" or something like that.

Blasphemy!
I think the rake is absolutely perfect on my '04.
I've never understood the front end "level" every one I see looks too high in the front.
Plus, the point of having it taller in the rear is for those crazy guys who use the bed of their truck for hauling loads...

I've got a 2.5 level on the way for my '04. I just hope it doesn't look nose high. I may have to raise the rear a bit I guess if it does. I may send it back for the 2". I've measured the fender wells to the ground and it's close to 2.5" difference.
my truck wasnt raked too bad, this is on a downward hill also,







A 2 1/2" kit took care of that quick!
Then again I won't be happy until it's 2"-4"
