Ah, you're from Cali, that explains a lot, no disrespect intended. I lived there when I was much younger, and have been back to visit a few times, and I have noticed a lot of lifted 2wd where the front was higher than the rear. But yes, the picture with the boat was definitely squatting big time. The big block weighing it down makes sense though.

Thanks, its about 2" lower in the rear on purpose. I like it like that. Maybe you mean the picture with my boat? I just bought my boat that day with a blown motor, so the big block motor and accessories where in the bed so the boat was front heavy with no motor and plus it being in the bed made it squat a little..lol. It doesn't squat that bad with my toy hauler though.

what i dont understand is the front being higher than the rear because all that changes how it handles and weight transfer. front down to far and oversteer, front to high and understeer and it wont turn as good as it should when you need to avoid something or when you push the trucks ability, but i guess its all in what you like. mine is level now but i think im going to go with a 1in rear block to help with some foward rake.

Personally, the distance between my tires and fenders is a half in higher in the back because I go mudding and was going for the big intimidating truck look instead of the prerunner look
(Although if I had the dough I would cage my truck and get widebody fenders like this)

It looks like he pulled the bedsides on the rear instead of ordering a fiberglass kit. It is a common cheap way to get the tire clearance that you need. That is why the bed rail caps do not match up to the bedsides.
It also looks like he dovetailed just behind the rear tire (made a diagonal cut from behind the rear tire up to the tube bumper that he must have built) That would be my guess.
