they way i under stand it is the 7700 already has a extra leaf over a regualr f-150 so what i would do would be crank the bars and put a 3 inch block under the back if you get to many leafs on the rear its gonna be to stiff and bouncy

offset and backspacing are directly related:

more negitave offset = less backspacing

and vice versa
