Is it an 04 or 05? If yes, then no. That's normal. The earlier generation trucks had a LOT of rake.

Ps 17" tires would be tiny! It has 31" tries on it

Most have them... 2" is what I would recommend. You can run 31's just fine with that.

I found one from hell bent steel. Billet aluminum, raises it by 2.5". Is that to much?

I didn't like the 2.5" after I installed on my 2wd. It put the front end about .5 higher than the back which is why I'd suggest the 2.
