Pre-runner lift. Lean in the back?

Im going for a basic pre-runner look. In the front, I have a 5.5 kit. In the back, I have f31 deavers and Bilstein 5150's. I'm trying to get the 'lean' in the back, but its somehow higher than the front even though the backs only 2 and a half inches. Any words of advice?

that "lean" is from guys that dump all their money into the front end, and drive around with a stock back end.

if you really want it, flip your rear hanger upside down. you just have deavers in stock loaction with stock size shocks?

Yeah, I just swapped out the stock deavers with the aftermarket ones. The Bilstein's should be set to stock +2.5 inches as well.
