I thought the steel piece under the leafs in this pic is a removable block, but I could be wrong as I haven’t torn it apart yet.

That is the spring perch with the silencer pad. The block will go between it and the leaf spring. If you go 2" & 1" it should give you the same look as above but 1/2 inch lower.

Mine is similar to this. I have a 2" front and 1-1/4" rear. So theoretically  I have 3/4" more rake.

Thanks, I may end up having to do the same. Have a link to the ebay kit you picked up? Also - pics of your lift once you get it done would be awesome! Appreciate it.

Looks good by the way. What size tire and wheel combo?

Where did you snag the 1.25" rear?

I had it leftover from my 2015 gmc. You may be able to find some at a local 4x4 shop.

Is your truck a 6.2L? I think only the 6.2L have that little shim. My SLT x31 6.2L does, but the 5.3L trucks apparently do not, based a thread I recently started about the thickness of that shim. My best guess after trying to measure the shim is that it is about an 1/8 on the front/thick end and about a 1/16 on the rear/thin end.

I just had my Denali leveled with the suspensionmaxx kit. 2.5 front and 1.5 rear. Its pretty level now with this setup. I think if you were to go 2 in the front without the rear being moved up at least 1 inch, the front will look raised a bit. Here is a pic of mine for reference. 

How much do you think your truck is squatted with those tires and wheels in the bed behind the rear axle?

What kind/size tires do you have? Any rubbing?
