Well they do make leveling springs are the rear blocks the stock ones? If so the leveling springs will work great. If the rear is lifted an additional 3inches then you will have to put a lift on the front to level it out.

No.
Those inserts are what cheapskates use to stiffen/support sagging springs.

Check out NAPA "Cargo" coils listed for your truck also. Used to install them on customer F-150s to replace sagging springs and level it a little.

No, they are bad bad bad. I've even heard of them popping out in certain situations. Coil spacer are okay, but new springs are fairly cheap and by far the best route to go IMO.
