Not sure which brand of leveling kit you're talking about, but in a nutshell:
A BB with the same size front and rear spacers will raise your jeep exactly that much and the angle that it sits will remain the same. A leveling kit will have front spacers only. Could be 1/2", 3/4" etc. You would stack these on the front spacers to lift the front of the jeep and make it sit level.
Or you could just get a BB that has taller front spacers. My Rubicon Express has 2-1/2" front spacers and 1-3/4" rear spacers. This takes out some of the rake of the jeep.
