Default 275/65 r20 Terra Grapps...Level or no Level...oopinions?

I currently installed 275/65r20 Terra Grappler and am very happy with my decision thanks to the great info here. I am currently running at stock height with no rub anywhere. I have a Daystar 1" leveling kit sitting in the garage and trying to decide if I should install it. Ground to top of fender well openings is currently 1 3/4" rake from back to front. I dont want to be nose high and really like to maintain a 1/2" of rake. Still a bit worried that even with the 1" level it will be to high......

Any opinions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks again for all that have posted in this forum. It definitely helped me make the right decision!

I don't think you will be too high in front with a 1" spacer. Most are running 2-2.5" of lift in front and are nearly level. I would put it on.

@DWSmoot what kind of gas mileage are you getting with those tires?

This is a daystar 1 inch leveling kit. Mine sits pefectly level at 39.75" front and rear. But I think this is becase I have the 3.7 so the front end is lighter, yours should have a slight amount of rake.

Thanks to KBS, I also have the 1 in daystar kit. There is about 1 in of rake left with RAS installed in the rear. Without it I'd guess mine would be dang close to level also. Running stock 275/55/20. Here is a pic. 1 in of rake is hard to see but is there.
