If you're worried about how it looks, just remember it levels out under WOT

Yeah, just trying to back up your info. My truck sits level unloaded, and with about 2000 lbs in back with a WD hitch still sits level.

If you're really worried about sagging, air bags work great. Also IMO a "reverse" rake looks way worse. I think a 2.5" will put your front about an inch higher than the back. Just grab a tape and measure it to be sure, companys like top gun will custom build a set of spacers for like $79 and it will actually be level. Any truck that I've personally seen sits nose high with even a 2". I also wouldn't get too sucked in with some of the expensive levelling kit manufacturers claims to some wonderful engineering. While the springs may be fantastic and ride great, they are simply overpriced. they serve the same purpose as a $79 spacer, or a Superlift spring, they just push the axle away from the frame. There is no correction for the track bar, or trailing arms. As for sway bar drops, a piece of steel and some bolts works just as well as the super expensive shiny billet ones with a logo CNC'd in the side. Just my .02. Where do you live? the reason I ask is i have some 1.5" spacers from before I did my 4.5", not that it matters but they have less that 2000 kms, and they could probably disappear for a bottle of whiskey if your local.

Edit;
Once I maxed the caster it drove perfect as well, you will be happy with whatever you choose.

With my 01, 04.5 and 06 Cummins I leveled all the trucks out by removing springs, dearching and then adding bags. Never had a problem with any of them. The ride is so much better and can tow the 10k tag with no problems with never worrying about head lights looking for squirrels when loaded or worms when unloaded...

I personally like a touch of squat in the rear but have the option to make anyone happy...
