You may have to rim a corner of the shock tower too - just grind it.

If you want to find out, take off the shock and the t-bar and use a jack to raise the suspension - you'll see the contact point.

Also remove the bump stops in front.

Will i have any issues putting some angled 3in blocks on the rear? Or should i go 2in? ANd the front will go low enough to match level?

Yes you will be good with 3inch blocks I'm doing 4 inch blocks on mine with bump stops removed in front and rear. I would do the rear blocks first before you do the front torsions, that way you will see where your rear stance is and you can go off of that to see how many splines you will need to turn when you re-index the torsions. I would think probably 2 but maybe 3. You will be fine in the rear no problem, most guys run the 3 inch blocks with the inner leafs removed and bump stops removed and have no clearance issues at all. 4 inch blocks you are fairly close to the frame which is why when I do it to mine I will put a small c notch in the frame. But you will be fine no doubt. What AngusWilly is referring to is when you go low enough in the front sometimes your shocks will hit the mount arm in that case you can just grind it out if it does. Hope this helps bro. By the way it's looking good!

Oh and REMOVE YOUR BUMP STOPS or you may be visiting the dentist after you hit a few pot holes or bumps.
