I had the same issue when I dropped mine. My front driver side spring had collapsed and it was a good 1 1/4” lower than my passenger side.

Yup, thats about how much mine is too. Same spring. Ha.

I did the same as rwjjr I used stock shocks all around with extenders on the rear. Wheels here are 17s with a 235/55 front and 275/60 rear. It rode great...

I am hesitant to cut my coils because I tend to change my mind a lot and putting it back on isn't something I think I could do. :)

Do you think that the western chassis 3.5/5 kit would have the same rake you guys have?

It will probably me a bit closer to level. 1 coil cut off is a 2" drop so mine was at 4.5" front then.

Depending on budget you might want to look into this TCI unit. Rear ride height can be adjusted.
