What do you guys think of this... Remove the add a leaf from the rear so it sits a little lower, slightly uphill, maybe lower the front a little more if its too much uphill? Or should I Leave it alone

Have you ever played with the torsion bars. I know there adjustable as well. Brings the front end up and down. I 'm not sure how far you can go with it before it throws the front end out. I know you can tweak it either way a little for height.
The trucks stance looks good in the picture IMO -
Check out your hole shots - how much does the back end sink out of the hole ? If it does at all. I guess that's what I might look @ first.

Yea I Had them turned all the way up a while back. Now its about an inch lower than stock. I took the block out of the back and just have the add a leaf in there.
Here is a launch, as you can see, the front end is way up there

I just noticed, I have the exact same rims, only mine are just 17's
If you drop the front you might loose some weight transfer and it might hurt the holeshot, even more so when you don't have the slicks on. Have you done the gears in the front yet? you wouldn't have to worry about swapping tires all the time just for on the street. not sure how much loss there would be though, couldn't notice any on mine, but I never timed it or anything.

Damn , that comes up a couple inchers!! I would leave it where it's at then myself. If your as low as you can go in the front. You have room in the back, I don't think it would look right going lower IMO.
