It likely is caused by sagging rear springs. You can either replace the springs, or boost the rear up with a set of lift shackles.

i was on Belltech website they have this Bar keys for the Front they can Lower to 1.0 to 3.0 u think i should get that to lower the front a bit then and see if looks better? cuz the height on the rear looks find but in the front looks way up lol looks funny since its an 4x4 will they be a problem ?

You can just reduce tension on your torsion bar for a lower front.

My blazer does the same thing. I'm contemplating getting my springs re-bent or replaced soon. Why would you want to lower a 4x4? I plan on raising my rear end about 4 inches to make up for 2 inches of sag plus get a little lift out of it. Personally I like the look of a truck with a rake to it
