What's the Baja Rack, 100lb? What are the sliders? 100-150, 150 max.

So, you are 200-300lb over stock. I am 250 and had not lost more than maybe 0.25" after 15,000 miles with all the settling of springs (maybe they settled 0.25" at most; I think less).

Yeah, I don't get it either, but it's doing something. I shouldn't be the same hight as my buddy especially with the tires. I just rolled 20k miles...

Personally, I only care for clearance underneath.

Maybe check your skid plate clearance. I don't know what it is on a stock Pro because I don't know how the skid plate impacts it, I am not sure if it is 10.4.

If you have at least 9.5" to the front skid, I would not worry about it.

As for fix, probably the easiest would be to talk to Mike at Dobinsons. I am not sure what their Pro front springs are like but I think they are 1" lift which should be fine for the stock Pro shocks. He tends to provide sensible advice, not just sell at all cost.
