How to Bring the Rake Back...

Currently I have the Bilstein Adjustable lift kit with 5100's and the Toytec AAL installed (No Blocks).

1)How do I bring the back end up to get that sharp rake look? I'm lookin for the back end to really stick up. I learned how to do that lift 2 years ago all from this site (Thanks everyone!) but now I want to keep the build going.

2) Are Blocks going to destroy the benefit of the AAL I have on?

3) Can I add another leaf (or 2) to get the back end up higher? If so, how many leafs do I use?

4) Will a Toytec (Rear 2" Block Kit ((includes U-bolts)) P/N: BK-2) get the back end up a good amount and still allow me to haul (not that I do often) a truck load of beer and camping gear on a trail? Hoping someone out there might have it on their build and can provide some pictures...

5) Here's the long shot question... Does the rake improve gas mileage?

It seems to me a lot of people want their Taco's leveled, and I dont really know why... I've always liked the way trucks sit with the back end up high...

Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

 

Nope. It allows weight to be carried in the bed of the truck without the ass sitting low and the headlights burning the retinas of oncoming drivers. Trucks modified so they can't haul a load just as well have big ole lime green stickers that say "city kid."
