Re: Raise the rear an inch or so after a flip kit? Rake looks messed up.

You can swap your rear spring hangers (the very rear where the shackle attaches) to a 4x4 spring hanger which is longer. This will raise the rear about 1.5" - 2". If That is too high, adjust lower with a small block between axle and leaf springs.

2wd hanger on left, 4x4 on right.
