How badly did I mess up my lift kit?

    Hello everyone!

    Long time reader, first time poster.

    My rear suspension is shot from a constant load so I have been acquiring different pieces to lift my truck and I think I am missing ~1” in the front.

    Edit: also I run 285s for my tires. And I have an aluminum CBI adventure bumper in the front with winch/lightbar. Trimming for the bumper gave me clearance to run 285s on stock suspension, so I pulled the trigger a few months ago before I assembled the lift kit.

    Rear:
    Deaver Expedition Stage 2 leaf springs and Fox 2.0 with reservoir for 2-3in lift.

    Front:
    Fox 2.0 coilovers for 1in lift.

    I want to keep the stock rake (or close to). Originally I thought the fox coilovers would lift the front 2in but for my 2018 it will only lift 1in. Does anybody have any experience with a similar set up or have ideas how to even out the front?

    Welcome!
    You might provide numbers on actual weight of what a “constant load” is for better help.

    Thanks for the reply! About 400 pounds constant load and a few hundred more when I load it up for weekend camping trips.
