MetalTech LT rear question

Hey Everybody! I have the MetalTech LT rear kit, but I carry around a cargo box and a dog all the time, and the bag sags a bit. As of right now, I sit pretty much level. I would like a bit of the rake back, and was wondering if anyone thinks it would be a problem to put a 1.5" spacer about the springs in the back to lift it up a bit more. The only problem I could think of is a messed up geometry when the rear wheels are stuffed/flexed. Let me know what you guys think!

what's your current spring rated? if it's medium duty, try getting heavy duty otherwise I wouldn't see any problem running spacer.
 
It's the normal long travel spring. It already rides a bit rough, so I think the HD long travel spring would be pretty uncomfortable. I was worried about maxing out the long travel shocks on full extension.
 
There's a few FJ guys that use spacers on top of the coils. The only issue I've read about with that setup is that they're very difficult to reinstall because of the added height.
