Default 3" block removal

When I bought the truck it was already sitting on 9 inches of lift with 6 of it being suspension, and I don't plan on going up to the 37's so I am thinking about removing the 3" blocks. I tried searching the site and couldn't really find anything. Any help on how hard it might be or how much it might cost for a shop to do it would be helpful. I'm gonna end up selling them in the end if anyone wants them!
Thanks

Great I was hoping it'd be level! Anyone know how much a shop might charge?
