Yep, that's why it is called modding. You change one thing and it affects something else and cascades through the truck. Try to set your goals for the truck and put a build plan together or otherwise you will be redoing the changes you already have done to accomodate new mods. You can achieve a level look with 2" lower shackles and the o/l spring removed. The side effect is if you are performance minded is increased wheel hop. To fix the wheel hop you need traction bars. Traction bars come in two versions, standard bars and flipped axle version. If you decide to drop further then most folks flip the axle with the side effect of needing a flipped version traction bar. So plan ahead the best you can. Exhaust usually needs to be changed to accomodate any suspension changes. Increasing load capacity can be done in several ways. Aftermarket springs, airbags or something passive like Aeon springs. It depends on what static hieght you want. You add airbags, then you may want to also add a onboard air system. So have a plan for your truck to cut down on redoing the things you have previously done. It never ends.
