    You don't have to cab chop. I've had my truck for 6+ years and just barely did this mod.

    So you did do the cab chop... But just recently?

    What was the reason you decided to do it?

    Well I added wheel spacers to my collection of goodies and when I am in reverse and turning my tires would rub. Plus I off-road quite a bit so I figured what the hell. The Plastics you will definitely have to trim. As for the Cab chop, it varies by truck. Some do, some don't. You won't know till you get everything installed. It's not like you will have to do it right there on the spot. You will be able to drive. Good luck.

    I want the rear to sit a little higher than the front so maybe I'll go with the 4" All Pro pack...

    It's only got about a half to an inch of preload on the spring. I'm also running Max Trac spindles... I needed them to clear my 35s..

    So if I understand correctly, you have about 5.5-6" of lift in the front. If that is the case then I would definitely go with the 4" pack for the rear if you want it to sit a little higher back there a 3" with a 1/2-1" block. From what I have gathered here, spindles and billies set at 0.85" and a 3" leaf pack will have you sitting close to level.
