Spacer lift + rake correction recommendation?

Not necessarily. I know that it's better than stock. That doesn't mean it's as good as it possible could be - just that it's better than stock.

If Stock is a 1, and let's say with LCAs, it'd be a 10. I could be anywhere from a 2-9. All of which are better than stock.

I agree with Word.

Spring Spacers can’t physically change anything to including the ride. If anything they can make handling worse because they throw out your geometry.
I think what you have experienced is the fact you took things apart and torqued them back up when you put it back together so everything is nice and tight again.

I mean, I put the spacers on with less than 8K miles on my Jeep. Highly doubt anything shook loose in that timeframe.

Are you still on the stock Sahara shocks and no extensions? Any perceived ride quality “firmness” is likely attributed to your maxed out shocks.

I ran this same kit for a brief period of time on stock shocks. I carefully measured my garage door height to ensure I had clearance to enter in sunrider mode and settled on the base 2”/1.5” leveling kit w/o extensions. Despite my math checking out, I still hit the top of the garage door opening in sunrider mode when entering the garage at anything faster than a crawl. The culprit . . . a combination of a 2” lip where my driveway meets my garage pad, and my maxed out shocks which were no longer operating in their designed “comfort zone“ (i.e, functional operating range). After installing longer shocks, my ride quality improved twofold and I can enter the garage as fast as my brakes will allow ?.
