Are your keys turned up at all. I think I want my front to sit a little higher then yours is... not much just an inch or so. maybe its the angle of the picture.
Keys are cranked up all the way,one more inch would b great .I still have factory rake which works perfect when I tow 2 tons but other than that I would agree on one more inch in the front ,Z71 springs are the way to go either way

Z71 springs will stiffen up the rear and add 1/4"-1/2" in height depending on how much sag your stock springs have.

I bought my keys and spacers separate... Mainly because I wasn't sure what I was doing with the rear yet. Any leveling keys will work, I think mine were like $50 shipped. Then bought 1.5" billet aluminum coil spacers.

As far as the extra inch... Torsion bar age and wear play a huge role in how your particular vehicle will respond to the leveling keys. For example; my Yukon has just over 200,000 miles. My driver side adjusting bolt is turned in 1/4" more than the passenger side to achieve level in the front. That's just the way my bars wore.

Here's a crappy picture of mine, sitting at 38.5" in the front and 39.25" rear on 275/60/20 tires

If I go z71 springs do I need to do a specific z71 key up front since the rear height is different? Or just any key?
