you can take that block out... (you'll need to do a shackle flip for it to still ride the same height)

The shackle flip will lower the load capacity of the truck, but seeing your mods, it doesn't appear to me that you're doing much towing/hauling anyway.

There's an article on how to do the shackle flip if you need to know how. They even sell a kit for it where you won't lose load capacity.
