have you thought about moving your rear shackle mounts to the back side of the rear bumper?

that could lower you ~1/2 inch...not sure if that's enough gain to worry about but it's at least something, and wouldn't be that hard to do since you're already chopping the frame and you'll need to fab up a new rear bumper/xmember.
