    That would work. 3rd Gens aren’t raked 2” exactly, from my experience they’re raked somewhere between 1-1/2” to 1-3/4” up front. Ideally I’d go with a 1-1/2” block in the rear to retain some rake.

    With a block, you will still get squat with any weight in bed. Your best bet is to get 3 leaf add a leaf. Keep overload in for 2", otherwise it is 1.5"

    Way too many to list
    Adding the rear block would definitely fix the squat. Recently installed a 2” front 1” rear lift with blocks in the back. It left the rear about 1/2” higher and the slight positive rake looks great to me.

    I agree with using the 3 leaf progressive add a leaf.

    I would add a 2 degree shim as well.
