When is the last time you had your suspension serviced? Could be low on Nitrogen charge in the rear. Zoom in on my pic of my truck but my member thing. That's mine on mid Perch with fresh serviced shocks and you can see my back is atleast 2 inches higher than front

Still get the Nitrogen charge checked. Very possible they might have made a mistake. It's the only thing I can think of

Fluid level could be low also. Somewhere a mistake was made in your service

They are reinforcing rings, one goes on each side. But putting them both on the shock side makes the shock taller, so now they're a "spacer".

So you need to pull the shocks back out and reinstall those properly, and that will lower the front. Likely enough to sit slightly below level like it should.

The rings that have an angle cut on them. Idk what else to call them. There are two per side. One goes on top of/outside the shock mount, one goes on top the shock/inside the shock mount. But Im 99.99% sure you put both on the shock, which is why you have the extra height. I can tell from the pic i linked your shock is not as deep up in the hsock mount as it should be, so something is def off.
