Default Deaver Spring Question

I just fully finished the lift on my 2007 DC. Back in August I had DR Coilovers put on the front, and set at 3". I also added 33" Toyo M/Ts and some rims. I just had the 11 Leaf Deaver Spring installed as well as Fox shocks on the rear. The Deaver Spring pack was supposed to add 2" of lift to the rear. I also added the TC UCAs on the front, as well as bringing the DR coilovers to the full 3.5".

The trouble is now my truck rides like a bulldog (high in the front), and I think it looks like ****. I was under the impression that it should have a slight rake to the front with this set up. I know I can lower the front back to where it was, but it was sitting about level before (see the pictures in my gallery).

What went wrong here? I am thinking the shocks, but I am not sure. I plan to go back to the shop tomorrow morning (I couldn't tell in the parking lot originally, as their parking lot has a huge rake to it).

Here are some random measurements:

Ground to Bottom of Rear Bumper: 19" (Measured to bottom of chrome bumper, just to the right of the hitch)

Front Ground to Body: 40 3/4" (measured from center of wheel well)
Rear Ground to Body: 39 3/4" (measured from center of wheel well)

Front Spacing Tire to Body: 9 1/8" (measured from center of wheel well)
Rear Spacing Tire to Body: 7 3/4" (measured from center of wheel well)
