It all depends on what springs you add to the rear pack.  If you put the rear pack in by itself then it will sit flat or negative.  You have to add springs to give you the lift you want.  Here are some links to go to.

A mixture of waggy springs and toyota rear springs works great.

you will need to move your shock mounts if you use rears up front..rears up front will also mover your axle 2 in forward so driveline issues may come up..Its an awesome upgrade..I love mine,,rides good,,no tire rubbage and cheap and flexes very well..
