Few more pictures.
If any is interested I will snap a few pics of the back and how close the bump stops are to the rear axle... I have yet to trim mine but they still aren't touching. I wouldn't go lower than 4" w/o cutting the whole bump stop mount off unless you never put anything in your bed. At first I was worried about the spring/shackle hanging too low because the hanger flip lowers the spring mounting point and the shackle is longer than the factory shackle, but as you can see... well you can't see the rear shackle hanging below the bed

i have 2" spindles, 2" springs, and belltech struts set to .5" lift, it rides really good, and you can definitely feel the difference without the struts, when I took them off cuz I wanted to sell them I didn't like how it rode so I put them back on.
I have some mcgaughys rear flip hangers that I decided not to use if ur interested.

Love my Belltech struts thus far
Mine is a true 2/4 as opposed to the 2/3 that removing the blocks and lowering struts provide... the extra 1" gets you closer to level. I have about .75" of rake on mine right now. I went with struts so I didn't have to sacrifice turning radius with spindles... plus I didn't have to unbolt the hub, ball joints, sway bar links or tie rod ends.

Front: Belltech 2" adjustable struts
Rear: DJM rear flip kit/lift hangers, 2" lift shackles
