Bilstein's installed, front at .85, back seems too low

I have an 07 Sport with 150k miles. The XREAS system was worn out. I had a shop install Bilstein 5100's all the way around with the front at .85" adjustment. I think the back looks too low now by just a bit. What do you think is the best way to raise the back about the same as the front. As far as I've read FJ springs would be a chance or spacers.

Thanks for any help

If you have the front at .85 and the back seems low, then I bet the shop installed the 5100 hats upside down. Did you change springs or anything? Post a pic of the front shocks and springs.
 
The hats are installed correctly. The springs are stock.

Let me rephrase. The truck is pretty level. The step bars are a little uneven with the ground now. I think that is my issue. I'm thinking I just don't like it and will more if the back is up a touch.

I guess that makes my questions. If I want the most minimal lift in the back, which option is best?
 
150k on stock springs = saggy. If you have air ride though, you can adjust the sensors to get some more height in the back.
