The TF leveling kit removes all factory rake.
The TF 2.5" BB removes "half" the rake, per Teraflex.

I have the 1.75" daystar "leveling kit" which over corrected my rake so I added 1" teraflex spacers in the rear but left out the factory isolators so my net is 1" lift in the front with an overall .75" lift. I didn't need longer swaybar links either.

Default rake

my question is why spend 130 bucks on leveling kit when i can pay 25 bucks for the front coil spacers if it levels it out.. all i want is the rake to be gone

Some people are in a hurry to go higher and some are not.

Just go with the front spacers for now and that will give you all the time you might need to investigate what lift is right for you. (if any)

Just throw some sand bags in the trunk! Seriously though, a big spare tire and heavy tire carrier/bumper combo would probably kill some of the rake.
