Default 1500 megacab 2" lift?????

Ok so I have an 07 1500 megacab. I just put on some 17x9 rims and some 295 70 17 toyo Mt's. It has plenty of clearance but I want to add a 2" lift on it. I see plenty of places to purchase a front leveling kit. I want to do the same in the rear. I do tow a 5th wheel with it. So do I just put in another rear leaf? I dont want to make the ride to much worse than it already is. I am thinking another leaf and not an overload should do it? My truck sits level as it is and I just want to bring up the front and rear up 2". Any one here have any experience with this?

i dont know if it is possible but maybe you can cut a 3" body lift down to two inches. otherwise, get 4" suspension lift and take out the level kit.

to be honest i did a 2" all around lift but it was so cheap to do a lift on a SFA truck i did a 2.5 front and 3" rear . i can now fit 37's . as long as you keep the factory rake you can still tow like it was stock

I dont want to go any taller than 2". It looks real cheap to do the front and I am just wondering what to do on the rear and keep a decent ride.
