    Did you put your overload leaf back in? If you did, you can remove it and it will drop it down a little bit. I'd drop a big load in your bed and ride around with it for a couple hundred miles. It will be settled by then.

    I agree, I like my trucks with some rake to them.

    265/75/16 tires only everything else stock.
    It will settle trust me.
    I get asked if I put a “leveling kit” on my truck all the time. (The suspension is bone stock)

    I just haul like a true islander. :) leveling your truck is easy just load her up and keep her that way till you have the desired height.

    My packs were stock. 3 little leafs and the flat one on the bottom. I thought that flat one had to stay in. I put the add a leaf on top of the flat one.

    It's only a 1.5" difference front to back so it will definitely work out ok. That's what it is stock isn't it?
