Surely not. You're jacking up the front and the back, expecting a perfect level is asking too much, IMO. Originally "leveling kits" were front-only. This system is a lift kit by another name. Which is fine! And you've cut your rake in half, almost. I can't wait to see pics - this is exactly what I would do with a Yukon, albeit on BFG KO2's.
Cost to install Rough Country leveling kit??

The rear is not adjustable, it's basically the same setup as the front - remove strut, bolt on spacer then re-install on vehicle. Same kit several others on here have used but I have not seen anyone else with this kit on a yukon.

When I picked it up they told me there wasn't any complications with the install but it did take longer than the quoted 5 hours to get it done, and getting it aligned afterwards was a challenge. I think it looks much better now and still rides really smooth, maybe a touch more bouncy over big bumps but not bad at all. Just completed a 600 mile round trip and it did great with 3 adults, 2 kids and the back end full of luggage and Christmas presents and whatnot. Here are a few before and after pics...

WOW, yea that looks a lot better! The tires alone transformed it drastically. The slight altitude gain is just icing on the cake. Congrats!

When they said the alignment was a challenge, i wonder if that means they could barely get it back into specs, as in it may be the max height it could be raised without other drop components…The rear is not adjustable, it's basically the same setup as the front - remove strut, bolt on spacer then re-install on vehicle.

I guess as long as the alignment is back in spec then that is okay…i guess you will find out soon enough with how the new rubber is wearing!
