    got a 2" spacer in front, want to level it out, slight sag, I think a 1" block in red might be to much, has anyone ever seen a 1/2" or better a 3/4" block before? if so where?

    I'm curious why you put a 2" up front to start with? Not being rude, truly curious because at least to my eyes that seems excessive to try and level the truck out.

    By the way unless you plan on rarely putting anything of any weight in the bed or have air bags, I would leave the rear a tad high. Doesn't take much weight to drop an inch in the rear sadly.

    the 2" spacer made the front slightly higher than the rear, didn't bother me with a little sag in the rear but now I'd like to level it out, a 1" block would make a little rake but like you said with any weight in bed then that might be the better option, just curious on the smaller blocks!

    You won’t notice a 1/4” difference in the rear. A full or empty gas tank will change the level that much.

    2" is a bit much for a spacer IMO but a little bit to level hurts absolutely nothing
