You have a couple options depending how much you are looking to spend...

Spacers - Cheapest route

Coilovers - a little bit more

Remove the rear lift block between spring and axle...many here have done it. It closes up the gap in the fender well some but you will still have some rake. There are several threads discussing it. if you tow heavy loads leave the block in place...to much squat without it.

No heavy loads, a little rake isnt bad. That shouldn't change the ride any I wouldn't think-thanks
