Lower front of '71 Blazer?

Hello, the current situation...

I just installed new skyjacker soft-ride front and rear leafs on my blazer to replace my tired old originals. Also installed Rancho rsx9000 shocks all around. Ride is MUCH better.

All this has resulted in ~2.5" front lift and ~2" rear lift. This has made the front to back 'rake' of the blazer such that the front is ~2" higher than the back. (All blazers seem to end up with higher fronts). This (to me) looks like cr_p...

I want to restore a normal rake of rear being 2-3" higher than front BUT I don't want to (except as a last resort) raise the rear via blocks, etc. becuase I would like to ensure it still fits in the garage and it is (overall) lifted enough (for me anyway). SO I would like to lower the front rather than raise the rear.

Any suggestions on good ways to do this? Thanks.
