Default Another lift question

I've got a 2012 JKU sport currently rocking a 2.5 RC budget boost lift (spacers) and 35's.

There is a significant rake in the vehicles stance.
With that being said..... I'm thinking of buying some 3" lift springs from northridge4x4 and a pair of front shocks, but keeping the back with spacers for now.

Thoughts on the idea to eliminate the rake while keeping on a low budget?

Some companies actally sell a coil front spacer rear set up, so see no reason you cant make one yourself.

Some have had luck with stock Rubi springs for a cheap lift. Plenty available likely for free just so some can get them out of the garage. Maybe you can even try just front Rubi springs to even it out....
