Which Leveling Kit?

Hey All,
I have a 2015 F350 SCSB FX4.
I'm planning on installing a leveling kit this spring and some 33-34's on my factory aluminum 17" rims.
Which leveling kit is "correct"?
I've seen lower blocks, upper blocks, springs, etc.
suggestions?
Thanks for the input in advance!

Well I know that bilstien and ready lift both make actual springs that are 2.5" taller that will level out the truck nicely, and they usually come with longer shocks as well. Though they can be quite pricy. Either one of those sets will probably be the one going to get for my truck. Though if you go with just spring spacers, most that I've seen all go on top, plus they come with a spacer perch so you can utilize the stock spring length as well.

I know me personally I'm not fond of the "level" look especially if there is a load in the back, though I don't want a bigger lift, so once I lift the front, I'm going to replace the factory 4" block in the back with a 5" block just to keep a slight rake.

I was planning on a 1.5" level and F350 blocks in the rear to keep the slight rake, as I have a F250 that is almost level now. You probably don't need any lift for slightly larger tires. I run the 285/70/17's on stock and I have plenty of room. If I were to go up to the 315/70/17 I would do this lift:
