A few more pics and this time loaded with a friends boat. The rear squatted a little bit but not bad and towed great.
Lift Keys, 2" Spacers, 33s on 20s

Not bad for a white boy! Got me wanting to lift the hoe instead of lowering. Nice boat!

Im not sure why either, but he has z71 springs as well and they should not sag... I have regular LS springs, and 1.5" spacer and with a 1000lbs of cargo my rear was saging good too, not something I like. Took the weight off the back, and my truck sprung up so high, that I cranked the front to match it back off. Also not liking the extra height Im at now without wait in the rear. Not sure if I would have prefer a .75" or 1". Now Im about to remove my coil spacers, in the rear and drop it back down to no rear spacers and then just lower the lift keys upfront to get it more level but little closer to the ground since 32s is as big as I will venture.

If anyone is looking for some 1.5" coil spacers let me know.

It doesn't sag that much as you may seem. It sat down about a 1" in the rear which I find kinda normal. The spring should absorb part of the tongue weight then be stiff for towing and handling. I do not know the tongue weight of the boat but the engine is forward of the rear axles and majority of the boat is also. So with the tongue heavy and springs responding by far better then stock I was very pleased with the handling and towing factor.
If the boat engine is forward of the trailer's axle, that explains it. That's going to add quite a bit of weight right there. I'm assuming it's a big engine as well.

Would look better with a more aggressive tire...

I did the same as factory specs with the camber adjusted to the negative side of 0 degrees. It shouldn't be very difficult to do the alignment. Mine turned out all in the acceptable stock range of specs.
