Default level kit...

ok 01 screw 2wd. looking at putting a 2" coil spacer on. once thats done.. it will be a little bit over 35" (from the ground to the top of the fender on the outside) and a little over 34" on the back.....I want it level, i know the measurements are off but will it look like its squatting in the back? or could i put a 1" spacer in the back to even it out? i would do a 2" in the back but that would make the same look now but everything is higher.

ideas please.

I was thinking about putting in a add-a-leaf but that would cost more than a 1" block.
