Default dropping the front after shackles

I have done the 2" drop levelling shackles but now it looks like the front is riding higher....

Are there just 1" drop springs or anything I can do to get it down a bit?

Truck is ccsb z71, 6.2L

If you removed the block in the back you could try putting it back in.
Also is there different holes in the shackle you could adjust them to?

I left the blocks in. And I really like the way the rear sits, it's just the front that needs a bit of help.

Ajustable drop struts

Allows you to drop the front upto 2" or raise 2" by 1/2" increments

Maybe I am looking at the wrong ones but I keep coming up with adjustable strurs that only go up. Ones that will lift up to 2".
