2024 Longhorn Rake and Squat

[Boomerzoomer]

I have a brand new 2024 Longhorn. When I measure from the wheel well to the ground I get the following measurements:
Front left: 37.0”
Front right: 37.2”
Rear left: 36.0
Rear right: 36.5

Seems like it’s off both front to back and side to side. Also, I’ve read that manufacturers intentionally build trucks with a rake of 2 inches, which I’m certainly not seeing on my truck. Am I justified in having concerns?

What's your tire pressure? All at the same PSI?

If you have air suspension which I suspect you do if the tire pressures are the same it may just need the links adjusted slightly. I think the air suspension is supposed to keep the truck level front to back and side to side. I am not certain of this though as they do make a leveling kit for the air suspension trucks. I am waiting to get my 25 before I decide what to do on that. I hate rake

The front is higher than the rear? That is definitely wrong. I previously owned a 2020 Longhorn and it definitely had a rake to it. The side to side can vary based on the pavement and position you park on. But your rear suspension is definitely sagging.

I currently have a 23 Bighorn, and my rear is more than 2" higher than the front. I measured 36.5 in the front and 39 in the rear. This is with 33" tires and the OEM were 32", so subtract .5 from those measurements.
