I have the latest Mopar lift with a 1" spacer in the front and steel bumper. I'm very disappointed in the amount of rake that I still have.

Update on my diesel. I added a metal bumper and winch. I went to 1.5ā€ spacer and still didnā€™t like it. The Mopar front springs donā€™t like the weight. I switched out my front springs to Clayton diesel springs and now Iā€™m happy.

updated pic ? I might need to do something similar.. did it level you out ? How much rake did you have after the clayton springs ? Did you need to add an adjustable track bar ?

Which diesel springs from Clayton? 2.5, 3.5, or ?

I went with the Clayton 2.5ā€ diesel front springs. I got rid of the spacers. The Clayton springs are stiffer and taller. I swapped them about a month ago so let me grab a pic and measurements today for you.

Looks like Iā€™m running somewhere around 3/8 - 1/2ā€ of rake.
The pic was right after the install. It settled a little from here. Pic makes it look high in the front but it isnā€™t.
