I ordered my kit from suspension maxx. I talked to several shops who told me they didn't know of a product that would lift the rear and keep the auto ride intact. Larry at suspension maxx was easy to deal with and knew exactly what I needed.
It's scheduled to arrive via UPS today.
I have an SLT with autoride, but no magneride.

I plan to install it today or tomorrow.

2.5" Front - SMXGM725

2" Autoride Rear - SMX15200M

Rear Shock extender - SMXHDSKEX

Currently, my front fender is 36" off the ground and my rear quarter is 37". I'm hoping this combination will decrease the rake to .5"
I want it to look level or very slightly higher in the back.

Thanks Tregs. I just did a 2.5/1.5 from Summit Performance on my Sub with autoride this weekend and it came out 37.5 and 38.25. no problems with autoride and it only cost 82 bucks.

I finished mine this weekend too, but you got off cheaper than I did.
I went with the 2.5" / 2" from suspension maxx. I also installed the rear shock extenders and autoride brackets. The rear was more involved than I thought, but nothing terrible.

My front is now at 38.75"and the rear is 39.25"

Im happy with it and the CV angles aren't as bad as I imagined. The ride is as good as stock from what I can tell.
I took it to the alignment shop today and they trued it with no problems. It drives straight and tight.
