Default 4" Rear blocks too high?

with a 4x4 that has the 2.5" leveling kit would 4" rear blocks make the rear sit too high? Just wondering if it would have -too much- "rake" and either affect handling or look bad and If I should stick with 3". just that I have access to a set of 4 inchers for cheap. didnt have much luck doing a search for pictures of these trucks with 2.5 leveling kits and 4" blocks.

are you taking the stock blocks out? I would say it would be fine if you did. If you put the 4" block on top of the stock blocks its going to look ridiculous. I don't have experience with the 4"blocks but that is my opinion.

Yes I would be removing the stock 2" blocks and replacing them with either the 3 or 4" I agree 6" of lift in the rear (with onlyu 2.5 in front) would look ridiculous!

I put a jack under the rear of the truck to see how the 4" blocks would look, but its hard to tell, would be nice to check out some pictures of other trucks or hear if it will be too much of an angle (rake) before I go thru with it.
