How much lift does the spacer advertise ?

You could measure the wheel wells and jack the front of the truck up and stand back and give it a look.

Have the spacers installed and then decide if you need the blocks in the rears. The rear blocks are incredibly easy to do in your driveway.

It depends upon whether you want it to sit level or maintain the rake. If the latter, then yes - otherwise, probably no.

Now that is a good idea.

Yep, I know.....lol. I have lowered, leveled, lifted, all in my driveway. I just see where 4x4 2" is level and they have a block in the rear. So I would assume since I don't have the 1.25" rear block, it would be nose high. I have sourced a set of OEM rear blocks/u-bolts, so they will be on hand once the 2" or may go with 2.5" is installed.

Yep, we will see. Probably do a 2 or 2.5, then add a block in the rear if necessary. Only going up to a 275/60/20 Falken AT3.

Well I just bought a Rough Country 2" level kit and my son is bringing me his OEM blocks and u-bolts from his 13. I will get those cleaned up and painted before install. Hope I dont need them, but I have to take out my Ford Performance lowering shackles anyway to install the OEM shackles. Now to decide on tires.....99% set on 275/60/20 Falken Wildpeak AT3.
