Trucks are built with a rake to level the truck when loaded. However if you put enough load onto the truck that the sag is past level, the WDH will bring it back up to where it should be.

Exactly. You want the front to be back to stock height. But the rear will still be lower than stock. If the rear is back to stock height, your front could be seriously overloaded.

And rear severely UNDERWEIGHT!
