This is probably a really dumb question, but... if the front end is raised 2" due to the shocks, are you then describing a vehicle that is (from the side view) sitting at an angle with the front 2" higher than the rear?

From the factory most trucks and SUVs have varying degrees of "rake" meaning that the front of the vehicle is angled slightly downward. By adding a ride adjustable shock like the Bilstein 5100's, the truck is now sitting level or at least closer to it. The same is accomplished with a leveling kit - an extension or spacer that sits on top your stock strut - like the ReadyLift one.
