Rather than raising the front I would consider lowering the back... Does your rear axle have blocks? If so, then I would install smaller blocks or remove the blocks to level the truck.

I purchased my SCT Livewire from 5 Star Tuning several years ago. If I were purchasing a tuner today, I would select the SCT X3 tuner with custom tunes to save $$$.

I can't advise you on the shackles but hopefully other FTE members will chime in...
