The rear is 2.5" higher than the front stock.
So add 1.5" and that's 4" higher.
Put a 2" up front and that still makes the rear 2" higher.

IF you put the 2.5" in the front, with 1.5" in the back, that would make the rear 1.5" higher in the rear.

Another question on these..

Does the AS kit (since its metal on metal) once installed make any noises (squeaks/thuds/etc) in the front end when the truck is driven over pot holes, railroad tracks, road to driveway approachments, things like that.
Vs if you went with the daystar kit which has the poly in it.

No, because the factory setup is already metal to metal where the strut mounts to the upper control arm.
