Alright guys need some advice/thoughts. so i did the cheap torsion bar key lift (1.5 - 2inch) and did 2 inch blocks in the rear. Now i did not crank them to match the rear, i kept a slight rake to it still. My first question is how does this angle look/can i go a tad bit higher. Second, is it bad to have too much rake in the truck from back to front? Third question, would bigger shocks help at all?

A rake is not bad. If you tow something you will level out. It always got me how ppl jacked up their front to level out and then tow with their *** hanging.
