I bought my gladiator with an already installed rough country leveling kit so I have no basis of comparison.

At some point in the near future I will be getting the mopar lift. I am wondering if I should add a spacer in the front to get it level or leave it alone.

The question I have is, will keeping the rake be better for fuel economy and or wind noise?

I am aware of the benefits of rake in regards to payload and towing, but are there any other benefits?

I'd like to know as well. I'm considering the leveling kit. A lift is so far down the mods list...
I don't plan to tow anything, and even if I ever did it would be my motorcycle or a small u haul trailer.

Mopar kit with 1" leveling kit right here. No issues with ride quality and its level!
