Lowering rear end

As I do not haul or tow anymore with my old truck I would like to lower the rear end to level truck up a little. I'm thinking about removing the spacer blocks from between the leaf springs. Does anyone see a problem with doing this? I have already lowered the rear a little with shackles but I need about two more in inches.

Regards,
Gene

The shocks being to long and the anti-roll bar connectors being to long would be the first tings that come to my non-expert mind.

You are not the first to want to remove the rear blocks, have you tried searching.

Alternately you could raise the front, but that may not be what you want. INMHO that would be a better course of action.
