Is it a good idea to remove stock rear blocks instead of raising the front to level my look down. ?

Easy. You'll need jack stands and a floor jack. jack up the back of truck, set the jack stands on the frame forward of the tires high enough to let the rear axle hang down ( best to remove wheels). Set the jack under one side of the axle, loosen the nuts, lower the jack until the spring separates from the axle, remove the block and reassemble ( you can reuse the rock hardware). Repeat on the other side. i've had mine off for about year with no issues
