Air Suspension Leveling - Lowering Rear Instead of Raising Front?

So I’ve read many, many threads about the leveling links for Rams with air suspension. I see that several people comment that the ride quality is definitely stiffer after installing the front links to achieve a level stance.

This might be a dumb question, but is there a way to lower the rear ride height rather than raising the front? I would think this would maintain ride quality and also achieve a level stance. I guess that’d be a “rear lowering/level link”?

I believe that revel sells lowering links as well if I remember right. The issue with going lower is that entry/exit is pretty much on the bump stops from what I’ve read so if you lower your aero mode will be close to entry exit height which is not a great ride.

I built my own links and raised the front 1/2” and lowered the rear 1/2”. This cut the factory rake look and didn’t compromise the ride. I initially raised the front an inch and noticed the stiffer ride.

Sounds like a great compromise. Is there a thread regarding building your own links?
