07 grand cherokee slanting
 
I just bought a diesel version, so far it sucks for fuel economy.

But i noticed a lot of these vehicles are way down in the front end, acting like a flying wedge with massive downforce.

Anybody install spacers in the front suspension to level out the jeep? An airdam in the front could negate any negative effects cause by the bottom catching more air

JEEP inclination
 
I looked at a page full of 2007 Grand Cherokee blueprints, and couldn't discern the body rake.
Typically, squareback bodies don't generate lift.
And JEEPs are heavy enough, and 'slow' enough that at 'normal' driving speeds lift would never be an issue.
Unless you have the 770-hp version. They'll be especially engineered not to 'kill' their operator.

Probably the front springs wore out after 15 years. Rather than raising the front, lowering the rear would be better.
