Your running a 3/8 spacer up front, so the front will sit higher than the rear. You should add a spacer to the rear now. The front might settle a little but nothing to crazy.

I thought the front spacer would help minimize the slope......but I may have overdone it. Now it slopes to the rear.
It has settled a little already after a day and a half and an alignment it is sitting at 37 1/2" on the driver side. The right side was 38 and change right after the tires went on, but I haven't remeasured yet......
However, I am quickly getting use to it and the only concern I have is that my wife has now fallen out twice..... that's 2 for 2.
Matt's rear spacers are on the way to help get the slope back in the right direction.
Good choice!!!

I'm not sure how I measured 37 1/2" after the alignment...... I checked again yesterday and both fronts were just a hair under 38" (if at all), 37 7/8" at the least.
Rear is sitting at 36 1/2" on both sides, after "settling".
I took new measurements after taking care of horrendous squeaking in both front bump stops (though I couldn't hear the right until fixing the left). A big gob of Vasoline spread on top of both have them nice and quiet now. Hopefully it stays that way.
I think I need to do this now!

I understand The Steel Armadillo could get you a great rate on OME and ship right to your door step
I was dealing with that issue as well & used a lith spray, so far so good

Anyone know if the medium springs sit any lower? I look to be ordering soon and not wanting a reverse rake any more than the current rake.

I had MD rear springs installed for a few days. Didnt like them because they didnt provide enough lift so I swapped them out for the HD's and gained almost an inch in the rear. I had HD coils up front already and thought I'd be fine with the MD's in the rear cause I took out my third row seats. I was wrong
