Question RCD 2" lift

I am looking to give the front end a little nudge up. I saw the RCD 2" hanger and shackel kit for $329. I only have 285/75/16 tires so I don't want to over do it on the lift. I would probably add the F350 blocks in the rear. Has anyone tried this set-up? Any opinions good or bad?

For 2 inches I'd just slap in a 2 inch Edge mini pack in the front and call it a day. Changing shackles and hangers is a much bigger job. The 350 blocks will get you another two inches in the rear, but you won't need it if you like your truck leveled. Also - I'd leave the rear end alone - there is the potential for driveline vibration even with a small change in operating angles.
