KDRunner lift confusion

STORY TIME: So I installed OME 886's and Toytec superflex coils on my 5100s about a month back and have quite the confusing mix of driver side lean, and back to front rake to fix, just haven't had time to get around to fixing things yet. So my plan was to get some custom spacers from Jason over at Burtman industries to level everything out. However, not only is it rather confusing as to what size spacers to get because the lean obviously changes somewhat relative to how full the tank is; but also, I recently ordered some SPC UCAs on a fantastic deal and was curious as to wether or not I should/could add an extra 1in of lift all around while I'm at it to net a total 4in in the front and 3in in the rear (or possibly 3.5 in the front and 3 in the rear to keep the rear .5in higher depending on how much rake you all recommend to accommodate the occasional camping gear and what not). Then wether or not I would need to replace anything else in order to accommodate this much lift aside from a diff drop, which I would assume is necessary.
On an empty tank my hub to fender measurements are roughly:
FD:23in
FP:23.5in
RD:23.25in
RP:24.25in
Any comments, insight and/or recommendations are thoroughly appreciated!!
(Side Note, I might also be doing a 1in bodylift depending on if it will work with the long tube headers and if I feel like having the brackets for my rpm fab bumper redone. Then wheels and tires will follow once all the lift nonsense is figured out.)

You can't really go over 3" in the front. CV angles and other geometry limit the IFS setup.

I would just get an OME trim spacer for the rear driver side and that should get it all close enough, or springs that account for the DS lean like Metaltech, or maybe Dobinsons I don't know if those do or not.

Thanks man! That's kinda what I had thought, theres just a lot of aftermarket UCAs that say there meant for 2-4in of lift and I've even heard of mad men doing 4in on stock UCAs. Quite frankly I'm not even sure how much lift I have at the moment because I feel like Ive seen a lot of varying stock hub to fender measurements.

There’s not a for sure way to tell unless you measured before the lift. I would just get a trim packer like Zim suggested. I need to get one too as I noticed the lean after my body lift for some reason. I’m sure it was there I just noticed it more afterwards.

Yeah I understand. What are your hub to fender measurements so I can get an idea if you don't mind my asking. Ik you have a 3in lift and 1in bodylift.

i had my ome 883/895e on 5100 installed with the longer of two OME on the drivers side for both front and rear. My truck doesnt lean on that side - sits pretty level from what i can tell.

I've never heard of one side being longer on the OME coils. I only have OME in the front but it'd be interesting if one of them was longer and I didn't notice then accidentally put that one on the passenger side.
